Mind you it was only a tiny one of about 10 inches long, but never the less it was my first one. Caught this evening on the River Mole in Hersham, Surrey with the spinner pictured below.

I had been on the river for about forty minutes when this monster took the spinner. I took the photos and came back. It was so exciting that I rang Ernie from the river bank.
