Stephen Gibbons 3lb 5oz Rudd

23rd August 202423rd August 2024 Richard Taylor

Early each season, anglers head east to the UK’s flatlands to target specimen rudd on countless miles of fenland river and drain. Whilst a few good ones are usually reported, it had been an extraordinary start, with a pile of three-pounders banked. Arguably the most impressive catch was taken by… Read more

Allan Pagett 16lb 1oz Zander

23rd August 2024 Richard Taylor

After catching a 13lb zander from the River Severn last year, Allan Pagett thought it’d take some serious beating. However, on a recent trip he blew that fish out the water with this huge 16lb 1oz specimen. He was fishing from a boat with his friend Alex and hadn’t caught… Read more

Dai Gribble 11lb 13oz Tench

23rd August 2024 Richard Taylor

Although he’s caught over 60 double-figure tench, a fish over the 10lb mark from Staffordshire’s Copmere had eluded Dai Gribble until a recent session, when he landed this immaculate 11lb 13oz specimen. The fish is, to Dai, worth the same as a 13lb gravel pit fish, and is one he’s… Read more

18th July 2024 Richard Taylor

After racking up what he describes as a ‘serious amount of blanks’ in search of eels, it’d have been easy for Norfolk angler Stephen Gibbons to fall apart when he missed a bite at 2am on a recent trip But after casting straight back out, he had another take before… Read more

Sam Smith 3lb 3oz Rudd

18th July 2024 Richard Taylor

Sam Smith’s River campaign kicked-off in style after he landed this lovely rudd of 3lb 3oz, plus further fish of 2lb 14oz, 2lb 9oz, and 2lb exactly. The Norfolk-based painter had the trio of ‘twos’ in the morning, but after that, he says the river ‘went dead’. But he fished… Read more
