Think it could be 54lb, I recall this figure was in the mags a few years ago but dont know if its boat caught or shore, i know the British record was around the 44lb mark.....may be wrong hope you find out.

Mick, Dave and Nicky's fish were not caught in the UK so would not count as british record even if they are bigger.

Didn't Ken Robinson get a 44lb 'er from Balcary a few years back ?

I'm sure that was a Scottish record, not sure about a UK record.

All three of the big Norway cod would have beaten the European record which stands at 44lb 8oz caught from Barry, Wales in 1966.

A wee bit to go for the European ALl-Tackle record - 82lb! from Norway.
