I had this message from a member so thought I better update. Any other fish records then please let me know.
This season I re joined Bathampton after being a long time member of ATAA. (Fly fishing and arthritis doesn’t mix).
Many years ago I caught a 4lb 8oz tench from the Avon at Claverton the Meadow field but I could not find it in the record fish list.
I remember it well and recall removing several tiny hooks from its lips before it was witnessed and returned.
Interestingly my brother caught a 3 pounder the following week.
I would be grateful if it could be listed as its probably my only claim to fame in a lifetime of fishing.
All the best
Bob Williams
