EDITORS COMMENTS
A Dapper Gentleman's Impressive Catch: The Largest Trout Ever Recorded at Dean Clough Reservoir, Great Harwood, Lancashire, in 1911 This striking photograph captures the moment of triumph for a young, dapper fisherman as he proudly displays the largest trout ever recorded at Dean Clough Reservoir in Great Harwood, Lancashire, in the year 1911. With a length of 24 1/2 inches, a girth of 11 inches, and a weight of 5 1/4 lb, this impressive catch is a testament to the fisherman's skill and patience. The fisherman, dressed in a smart suit and straw boater hat, exudes an air of gentlemanly elegance. He holds the massive fish up by the gills, its vibrant colors and large scales glistening in the sunlight. In the background, the serene waters of the reservoir reflect the clear blue sky, and the rolling hills of the Lancashire countryside can be seen in the distance. The fisherman's rod is propped up against a tree, and a fly fishing reel lies nearby. The scene is one of tranquility and achievement, as the fisherman takes a moment to savor his impressive catch before releasing it back into the water. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the simple pleasures of angling and the thrill of the catch, as well as the stunning natural beauty of the English countryside in the early 20th century.
