A SEVEN-HOUR drive from his Suffolk home to target the grayling of Scotland’s rivers paid off in spectacular style for Andy Waters, who banked this 3lb 4oz fish on his first trip targeting the species.
The 39-year-old decorator added specimens of 3lb exactly and 2lb 13oz, all of which were caught on floatfished maggots.
The three-pounder was Andy’s first-ever grayling, and it battled hard, hugging the bottom for 10 minutes before finally surfacing.
