Well lads I was out diggin a few lug this morning and I met a chap there also digging , he told me about a bass he cought at Kilfarasy the weekend he reckons it was 13.5lbs he said it had net marks on its belly and sides and what he told me next sickened me . " It was stink and it tasted rotten " . could this be the same fish ye were talking about ???? I hope not :cry:
