I was lucky enough to admire this beauty again with a recapture but who cares when they look like this and over 40lb…. Zigs doing there thing in 30ft of water. 1 of 2 in a few hours of each other.

19/04/26 Bude canal.
Starting off down the main basin of the canal I quickly realised there wasn’t any fish in the area so it was time to get on my feet. After walking for a good half hour to 45 minutes keeping a close eye on the water I got to the top. Lock and decided to take a quick water break. Out the corner of my eye I noticed some fizzing just dying off in the margin and it didn’t take me long to have some bait scattered on the spot and my size 6 dagger curve shank from @commandotackle lowered. A couple moments later the rod was off and I was hooked into this absolute canal Gem 💎 @eclipsebaits virus 🦠
