Liam told Sticky:

“I’d been carp fishing earlier that morning on a nearby stillwater, however, plans changed and I ‘upped sticks’ to the Trent in search of barbel, little did I know how my efforts would be rewarded! After taking a slight detour into the tackle shop on the way to pick up some fresh maggots I was soon at the river getting the rods out.

Committing maggots to one rod and a Sticky Baits Krill boilie on the other, it wasn’t long before the bream latched onto my maggot rod and I could hardly keep it in the water. The boilie rod sat stealthily whilst I constantly re-cast after each bream. Eventually, out of the blue, the boilie rod tore off and I was attached to what can only be described as a giant. After a good old-fashioned beasting, I could finally rest eyes on my reward and there, lying in my net, was something that I will remember forever!”
