Found this on you tube. Tony Kirrage catches a cod at the end when it looks like everyone is going to blank. Surely they wouldn't nip down the fishmongers and buy a cod for the cameras!? I can't believe that!.......
.... not the most lively looking fish I've ever seen though.... I've been lucky enough to catch a few of these down the years and they don't usually look or act like that when you first land them.......
:confused::D
Wot you reckon, lads.? I hate to cast aspersions, like.......

aye when it comes to fishing for glory thats when the porkies come out, there was a local angler lived in sunderland, got to do a photo shoot on hendon prom ,the other lad who was supposed to fish with him could not make it, sunday morn was the day of the photo shoot, i fished saturday evening on hendon , and had a drive to the hall see if there was out doing, pinnochio was down with a nice 6 pounder in a bag full of water and still allive, strange i thought,wonder why he was keeping it alive, got home phone goes its pinnochios mate tells him what i saw, then i was told the fish were getting caught in different areas by pinnochio , then took down hendon prom 5am conning people he had caught the fish there,i had a drive down sunday morning and pinochio was fishing with a crowd of other anglers, he shouts up to me , i hammered the fish this morning down here, i shout what size was the best fish pinochio shouts 6 pound , i replied, the same size you had last night on seaham ,the other anglers,sussed what he had done ,and got the lads down under false pretences saying it was lifting with fish, i heard one shout to him you caught them fish else where didnt you, and not very politely chased him,so when it comes to fishing for glory pinochio was caught out, dont believe it unless you see it with your own eyes
 
I have my doubts about that video also :thumbdown: - looks dead to me

It happens though, even Robson Green tells a few porkies for the camera. I was heart broken when a mate pointed out a video to me when he is "fighting" a fish in but the reel changes during the fight between shots!

That wouldn,t be a certain person who writes for a fishing mag would it Tony/;):D
 
Dead as a dildo, colouration is degrading and the eyes don't move. Still not as good as the Irish record pike fiasco though
