Ouse produces double figure zander

This 9lb 10oz River Ouse zander is the first big fish that Andy Timbers has caught from a river in over 15 years.
The 35-year-old lorry driver, from Ely in Cambridgeshire, caught the specimen on a legered, headless roach when he was taken fishing by friend Jonathan Myles.
Andy has since upped this personal best with a bigger one from the same swim which tipped the scales at 10lb 4oz.

Canal produces 3 lb 8 oz perch

SHEFFIELD-based chef Lee Swords decided to target the perch in his local canal when the River Rother flooded and came up trumps with this 3lb 8oz perch.
Lee (37) feeder-fished chopped dendrabaenas, a lobworm hookbait and a drop-off indicator on a tip rod while he searched the water with polefished worm, taking two other smaller specimens during his short afternoon session.
