Rae Bushby has only been fishing a little bit over a year—and she’s already caught a fish that any trout angler would dream of. On August 15, she went fishing with her 88-year-old father Robert at the Tekapo Canal in Central New Zealand. Bushby says she started fishing 16 months ago and her father is her regular fishing buddy. Robert was taking a break around 10:30 a.m. on the 15th when the huhu grub—a small, mealy larva—Bushby was using for bait got hit.
 

“On the hook set, the line started screaming out the reel as my rod bent in a very gratifying way,” Bushby tells F&S. “I deliberately had very little tension on, as I have lost a few big ‘donkey’ fish from a broken line before. I ran down the canal after the fish thinking I had a good one on…maybe over 10 pounds!”
