Ik zag net dat 1 vd bekendste Engelse vissen namelijk Two tone (conningbrook) overleden is, en terug een hoop controverse dat ze een hoop leadcore en lood meesleepte en dan weer niet enz...
Maar dez post was van de bailiff dus die zal het wel weten zeker:
Two-Tone was seen trailing a hooklink only. At no time was she seen trailing leadcore also, that is just a rumour. The day after she was seen trailing a hooklink she was seen again without the hooklink. I repeat, she was not seen with leadcore attached also.
I was at Conningbrook today and saw the great fish just after he/she was found. Visually, she was in great condition, her mouth was not damaged in any way. At no time recently has she been tethered - FACT! I guess the rumours are started by jealous morons with no lives. Or people who are stupid enough to believe the aforementioned. I'm a bailiff on Conningbrook and consequently I know all of the anglers fishing there. There's not one of them who would have put the great fish in any danger by using a death rig. Anyone who thinks any different is clearly deluded. It's a sad fact of life that all creatures die when they get too old. It's nature. So please gents, let's stop the rumours and show a little respect to those who are mourning her loss.
