Anthony Hart hit the big barbel jackpot on the Trent this past week, smashing his long-standing pb after catching an impressive 17lb 2oz fish on a homemade boilie containing fishmeal and spices.

The catch came on the second day of his session after a quiet first 18 hours where no bites were forthcoming. Undeterred, Anthony kept the bait going in, and at 4am the next morning he had a hectic run of seven double-figure fish, with the biggest of his haul giving him a blistering take followed by a dour battle during which it ‘felt like a dead weight.”
