17lb cod lower Tyne

yep seen the pics its a monster.And it seems lately a lot of these big doubles are coming at the end of a session when all of the bait left gets loaded onto the hooks and a huge monster bait is flung out.
 
any news on who took it be nice to know and what it was took on and how it was landed
cheers pop65

Gary Appleton (Gary36) had the 15lber. Walked to the stairs and Simon out of Lewis's landed it with his bare hands.

Think he even landed the other one as well! :)

Lovely fish.
