Mines got to be a Tadpole fish about 20 years ago around bearfleet sorry bird fleight for the purists,common place now but all them years ago I had never even heard of them never mind caught one.
Strangest catch in fresh water is a flatty,I know these get caught all the time in fresh water but mine was caught beneath the via duct at liverton mine andas anyone local will know this is a good 5 miles from the sea with waterfalls,rapids and lots of other obstacles to navigate,poor little flatty must of thought it was a salmon.

ive never heard of them that far up the beck foo
My strangest catch wasnt exactly strange but was rare, and that was a 3lb salmon on skinny jetty on a macky spinner. it was hooked in the mouth aswell
