Cracking fish and well done. No harm in knocking that one of the head!! Some eating in it! Don't think i would have had the heart to kill it! I would probably have returned it! How long do yous think it would have taken that fish to get to that size?

Think it takes 2 and a half years to grow a pound

So roughly 30 years old

Cracking fish and to think it avoided gill nets and anglers for all that time
