Big brownie falls to buzzer

Bloodworm buzzers and similar patterns are still accounting for numbers of big brown trout at the nation’s stillwater trout fisheries, but very few have come close to beating this superb 15lb 6oz specimen, caught by Tony Meredith.

The Wrexham-based angler was targeting Graiglwyd Springs fishery, located at Penmaenmawr, North Wales, when he hit the jackpot.
