Fenland pike don’t get much better than this immense 32lb 8oz specimen landed by Cambridgeshire angler Richard Miller.

The fish brought an end to a 25-year quest for a Fenland 30 which came during a very cold and frosty morning.

“I received a sequence of bleeps on the alarm and hit into the fish,” Richard said.

“During a very subdued fight the pike seemed to get bigger as the battle went on, and it was so big that it broke my landing net!

“I was over the moon to have landed it – it’s the pike of a lifetime and I don’t think I’m ever going to better it.”
