The UK’s biggest ever shark landed on a fly rod has been boated at a colossal 198 lb - 89.6 kilo.
Angler Nick Fahey fought it for two hours off Milford Haven
Welsh
coasts.
He was fishing with a group of friends aboard skipper Andrew Alsop’s "White Water II"
The big shark, which fell to a homemade fly, is also believed to be the heaviest shark caught using a fly rod in the whole of Northern Europe.
Capt.
Alsop
is no stranger to seeing large fly caught blue and porbeagle shark caught from his boat; the past year four anglers landed a record breaking breaking haul of 29 blue sharks to 130 lb using imitation seagulls.
