Additional Info: Just got back into hobby after 17 years hiatus, local day ticket water had previously given me two blanks so tried an overnighter and around 10 in the morning after an uneventful night alarm trickled off very slowly then off she went, managed to tease this little 28 1/2lb mirror into the net, smashed my pb of nearly 18 years by nearly 5lb, absolutely brilliant moment, to say i was made up would be an understatement, hopefully more to come
