Well done. Nothing better than catching a big Thames perch. There appears to be quite a lot of them around these days. Might I ask how you caught it?

I was using a very light running lead just enough to hold bottom in a slack and touch ledgering with worm on the hook and feeding red maggots and broken worm :Hat:

The bigguns can't resist worms! It's great to catch them touch ledgering.
