Soap box found; surely there's a greater possibility of dropping ol' whiskers if holding it away from ones body, better protocol would be to hold the fish closer to your body and always done on bended knee, as if the fish wriggles or thrashes it is easier to control but if heaven forbid the worste case scenario occurs and a drpped fish happens, at least it ain't got far to fall.
(I am pleased to note it appears Jerry was on his knee albeit only one)

Cracking fish and personally I'd ignore all the stupid critics and do things your way, not as if you were inflating the fish's weight and kicking around the bank, or was the latter performed off camera (for them who don't grasp sarcasm, the latter remark was jocular).

Sarcasm ? From you Colin, surely not

 

[John Walker]

big hands, straight arms but nothing can distract the fact that the fish is a real cracker

 

[Colin Gordon]

Sarcasm ? Urmmmm

Sarcasm: Lowest form of wit and if wit were shi....................

Jerry,

Is this a different fish to your old Goyt record? Still got the AM feature where you caught her kicking around but the picture is of the other side.

hi mate
yes it is the record fish, strange you should point that out about the am feature being the otherside, if you look in the goyt gallery, thats the original picture that was taken, i really dont recall having a picture taken featuring the other side, i know longer have a copy as it got damaged, shame really
take care
jerry
