I read elsewhere that the British record for a fly caught has been broken.
A magnificent 40.5 pounder caught by PFFA member Mike Green.
That's some fish eh!!

Blithfield!!

Mike's is certainly a new record for Chew. 40lb 08oz
Caught on a Bob Church Pro Piker Fly rod.
Mike has caught an impressive haul of pike both on lure and fly. Several 30's on lure and I believe his first 30 on a fly last season.
He also has an impressive list of big Zander on the fly.
