Trying out one of our own test baits (Kev and Ruth make their own baits) called the the monkey in conjunction with size 10 gripper hook from AW Tackle and a few baits crushed up in white band mesh stocking supplied by Westmore Pva.
My first take was a steady one soon as I lifted the rod I knew it was a good fish. After a scrappy battle she was in the net.
Happy days 30.02 mirror. Just slipping her back and my other rod rattled off resulting in a 13lb mirror.
