Hometown: Liverpool

Additional Info: 4 year old Lily came along to one of our junior angling sessions at North West Angling Academy which is based at Brooms Cross Fishery. After 15 minutes the elastic on her 4m pole stretched and after a battle she landed this lovely carp. We think her pink rainbow coat brought her luck and obviously her choice of maggot was spot on.
