Catch ’em young
New anglers young and old have been reeled in by a new campaign to promote fishing.
McKenzi Whittaker, pictured, was one of hundreds of people to try out the pastime in National Fishing Month.
The five-year-old caught this carp in Kippax, near Leeds, when she took part in the Angling Trades Association’s Take a Friend Fishing project.
The group said: “It’s a hugely enjoyable way to strengthen relationships and it often leads to lasting participation in angling.”
