Ace angler Sam Thomson breaks grayling record
Sam, who attends Forth Primary School, broke the previous record catch of three pounds one ounce while fishing the River Clyde with grandfather Sam McCully.
And not only did young Sam beat the record, he absolutely smashed it by catching a three pounds 10 ounce beauty using a four pound line.
It’s all in a day’s work for Sam.
