I caught the trophy-winning fish in mid-October. I was on a six-day mullet fishing break with Dave Matthews, an old friend from England. We were both fishing a shallow, fast-flowing swim, Dave from one side and me from the other, and we’d both had a number of 2lb and 3lb mullet by mid-afternoon.
As the tide started to creep up, threatening to force me off my swim, I contacted some bigger fish. In quick succession I lost one in a snag, pulled out of another trying to bully it away from the same snag, then was lucky enough to land the 6:03 after a very lively scrap.
