5lb 10oz Rainbow for Mark Sinclair

Caught on the Hopper

Less than three weeks after Pat Power landed a 5lb 5oz rainbow to register the best fish of the season so far, fellow Burrator member Mark Sinclair from Horrabridge has gone one better with a fish of 5lb 10oz. In an email to me on 13th June he said:

'Hi Peter
I thought you might like to see this one!
I was just about to call it a day, with no results during a very windy day, when all of a sudden -wham- this rainbow took a hopper fished on the surface.
Regards...Mark'
