I Caught the Biggest Fish in the UK (I'll never call a fish giant again)

This video has been the hardest but most rewarding project yet. The Common Skate is the largest non- migratory fish living in UK waters and from my experience is fairly unknown to the general public. I hadn't known about this fish until recently but as soon as I discovered there were fish which could weigh more than me - I had to catch one. This video only scratches the surface of the planning, effort and time it took to land this spectacular fish.

I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to Casper for doing such a job with the filming. Check out his YouTube channel about exploring Scotland on a bike here- ‪@casperstour‬ . I think the videos are a great watch.

The weight of the skate was estimated to be a whopping 161lbs (73kg) from the measurement we took!!!

I hope you enjoy the video.
