Chris Yates's words...
"This was easily the most impressive piece of netting I've ever seen. In his impossible position, John knew that he only had one opportunity to net what was obviously a record fish. One chance was all he needed".
Would love to read his account. His chapter in 'For The Love Of Carp' has always brought the pool to life for me.
