Lake Record nearly at the 60lb mark

September 20, 2014


At 2 in the morning the phone rings, forgetting to put my glasses on (it looks like a French number calling) I rather abruptly answer “allo….ALLO” a very apologetic voice at the other end says “ Is that Heather? It’s Kevin here, I’m really sorry to disturb you but we think we’ve got a new Lake Record here, it’s 59lb 2oz” Larry hot footed it round to their swim thinking “No, it can’t possibly be” but after double checking the weight on 2 sets of scales it was well & truly confirmed that they certainly had got the new lake record !!

Unbelievably just 10 days after coming out at 57lb 4oz it must have really been on the munch to put on nearly 2lb in 10days & now tips the scales at 59lb 2oz!!

Whilst fishing here Kevin broke his PB 3 times, the first on Sunday with a 38lb 10oz followed 2 days later by a 39lb 9oz topping it off a few days later with this amazing 59lb 2oz Lake Record.

At this rate it’s quite possible we could see it hit the 60lb mark by the end of the season…watch this space !!

Congratulations & well done Kevin :-)
