Lobworm produces a 4lb-plus perch!
Yorkshire stillwaters aren’t generally known for their huge perch, but a commercial fishery produced this 4lb 1oz specimen.
Specialist rod Mike Townsend was fishing a venue in the south of the county with a link-legered lobworm when the predator fell into the trap.
The local angler used a rig made from 4lb mainline, a 3lb 8oz fluorocarbon hooklink and a size 12 hook.
