Pollack gives Huxster top fish entry
Wednesday 28th January 2009, 2:29PM GMT.
ENTRIES for the January Fish of the Month have petered out in recent days.
However, Shane Huxster found one specimen worthy of an entry when he fished a south-coast shore mark.
He was fishing with a legered mackerel hoping for a conger or bull huss, but it was a 10-6-0 pollack that grabbed his bait.
It will be judged against the 16-1-6 Bailiwick shore record.
As from Sunday, entries will be welcomed for the February competition.
Prizes to be won will be the Shakespeare monthly award for the top overall fish, the Alderney SAC Tankard for the best boat specimen and the J. Meerveld and Sons tankard for the top shore-caught fish.
There are the two runner-up prizes of Bucktrout’s Bass beers, the Aval du Creux Hotel junior award and the Tackle Direct spot prize.
