Lure tactics were the downfall of Tomas Aleksandravicius’ 4lb 6oz perch from the River Trent, ending his four-year quest to catch a specimen stripey. Targeting the river around Newark, Tomas couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the fish in his net.

“The fish is a proper River Trent predator that fell to a 4ins jig head slowly retrieved.”
