Captor’s Comments:
Fish took a mainline maple8 boilie. I used snake bite hook link with a size 8 barbless hook. Bait was in the water for 10 min before the fish took. There was no run just 3 bleeps. when i struck the fish didnt move for at least 10 seconds then run across the lake. Took me around 15 min to land. Fish was unmarked and in perfect condition. I looked in its mouth and there was no other hook marks so could be a first time catch.
