Up to 10 anglers, but I'd imagine most of these 'official' glory hunters will just have two on the lake, camera crew, chef, etc...
How many did you share the lake with?

Lovely kipper and well done to all the captures. Unfortunately it's going to be another fish hounded to extinction. 
I can remember not too long ago when it was £10 a day
No nights.
It was only a 40 then lol

on one level i cant blame the owner capitalising on the draw potential of the big fish, but its going to get too much hammer.

Mug fish 
Each to their own but it’s not an achievement as far as I am concerned.

I don't ever recall you having this attitude with lake owners on your fishery management group Dave, perhaps I need to use the search function lol.
Personally I think it's a magnificent fish, from what appears to be a really well run fishery. I'm pretty sure that the owner could fill his bookings asking considerably more for the chance to catch this fish and I don't begrudge them a penny of it.
Well done to the fishery and well done to all the anglers who catch it.

Just like any other half decent venue that can be exclusively booked.

I did say i cant blame the owner capitalising on the draw potential of the big fish, so what attitude?
It's just a shame that the inevitable pressure and repeat captures will not be good for such a magnificent fish.

It's an exclusive booking only venue, and most of the time there's a handful of anglers on there. Imagine if it were a normal day ticket venue. You'd have every swim taken daily, and it would be under way more pressure. Places like linear and farlows see far far more pressure on them

To be fair I replied to the wrong post, it was post 14 that felt like you were insinuating that it was pricey.
