Well known big fish angler and Essential Bait consultant Rick Golder has struck gold yet again. Rick is no stranger to big fish and is certainly no stranger to one particular linear that has found itself in Ricks net on a couple of previous occasions. However, on this occasion it bounced the scales around to an all time high of 48lb 2oz!!
Rick’s awesome late autumn capture fell to the winterised version of the Shellfish B5, but like most big fish that get a taste for the B5, they just keep getting tripped up on it time and time again. The Colne Valley carp will be pleased to hear that Rick is hanging up his rods until January for ‘new baby’ duties! Good luck with it all fella.
