Emma Bags a Record

A trip out of Falmouth last week proved to be a “red” letter day for Emma Hodge when she landed a new British record red gurnard. Emma and husband Nigel were fishing onboard their own 42′ Offshore 125 charter boat “Wave Chieftain” when the monster gurnard snaffled Emma’s mackerel baited feathers.

The fish weighed in at 3lb 3oz 3drams and beats the previous record, also from Cornish waters, by just under 5oz.
