A young boy and his father were fishing on Lake Champlain in Quebec when the tiny kid managed to reel in his first fish.
A fisherman has reportedly reeled in a record after hooking what’s said to be the largest-ever wild brown trout caught in a river in Northern Ireland.
Barry Mcguigan was fishing during a recent nighttime angling adventure with friends in the Six Mile Water river in Antrim, Northern Ireland, when he caught an 11-pound, 31-inch wild brown trout, news agency South West News Service (SWNS) reports.

"We fish all night and cast our rods thousands of times, but often we won't even get a touch,” the angler explained. "These type of fish are extremely tricky to catch as they are very easily spooked.
"I couldn't believe it when I pulled it out, the weight on my fishing rod was almost too much to bear,” Mcguigan continued. "To catch such a massive a fish of this species is unbelievably rare in this type of habitat, and there hasn't been a bigger fresh water brownie caught in over 30 years.”
