Actually was 43.4 which is a phenomenal fish for round here I've only fished it once but my brother has walked round it as he doesn't live far from it and he was told no fish in there all the polish have had them,but I know the guy who had it at 36 as well (before Mallin)he works at another depot from me and I was there helping out and he told me he had it out at 36 then Mailin had it that's how I come to know about the fish,but it's a dodgy area they don't like you fishing there if your a new face,can't blame them protecting their fish as too many would catch a fish like that and put it somewhere for their own gain.

I remember the place as a kid, extremely deep in parts and that was after the water level had dropped about 15foot.

The sort of place I would like to take a deeper now and see what its really like
