Following on from his capture of Hortons Thorpe Park Common some days ago Gary Lewis has banked 3 fish over night. Best of the bunch was No Name at 37lbs followed by a 32lb and 24 lb Common. As with the TP Common gary was fishing in Captors.

Excellent result.
Andy,
whats it like actually seeing a fish like Shoulders on the bank ?
I've admired that fish in photos a thousand times, but to see the great fish on the bank must be something else.

Amazing dude, Seen a lot of horton fish this past year but neither of the 40's,
untill other day, shoulders is massive mate, long, wide and fat, stunning fish mate,
and Gary is by no means a small geezer but he still struggled with it because its shear bulk, true autumn colours as well, spot on,
hopefully he will have had more by now as he was fishing till wed and fishing well n all.
