25lb trout caught on lough corrib ireland


Recommended Posts


Luckier than the fish that's for sure, why mount it and stick it up in the pub?

 

Why not?

 

The angler who catches it makes the choice and shouldn't be made to feel guilty by others into returning fish out of sentiment just because it has avoided a net or hook longer than most. I would be more concerned about anglers that bag up every session with young healthy fish than the loss of one older one. The impact on the breeding population is huge from these "fishmongers" unlike the angler that takes one large specimen.
