Hometown: London

Fish Weight: 24lb

Bait: Scopex squid bottom bait

Venue: South London

Rig: Blow back

Additional Info: After a few attempts casting 21wraps into head on winds I just about managed to get my rig where I wanted it. Ran around the lake to throw in some bait over the top by hand, as I was fishing just of a bush along the far reed line. Within 20mins of the recast the rod was away and I was into one hell of a fight. With the fish towing line and holding bottom for some time, swimming under, around the net & jumping out. But after all that It was mine and in my net. Wasn’t till then that I realised it was a proper urban banger, hitting 24lb on the nose. 1 of 3 from a 48 last week. One being a pike
