'Monster' salmon caught on river 
UK Source: bbc 10/15/2007

Claims a "monster" salmon caught on the River Ness in the Highlands is the largest to be hooked in the UK are being checked against record books.

Anglers are hopeful that the male, or cock salmon, will break the 64lbs (29kg) record set 85 years ago.
 

The anglers who caught the fish on the River Ness in Inverness at the weekend said it was 50in (127cm) long and had a girth of 40in (101cm).

Images and its measurements are to be analysed at a fisheries laboratory.

The salmon was released back into the river.

Robby Bremner, who witnessed the catch, said: "As far as I know, it's the largest fish to be caught in the Ness for some time.
