IMAGINE having a pleasant swim when you are dragged out of the water by a hook embedded in your mouth? The weight of your body pulling down on the hook causing horrendous pain (Epic battle to catch monster cat fish, September 27).

Like kids at Christmas, everyone on the river bed cheers as you are forced on to scales.

The “special equipment”

removes the hook from your badly injured mouth and you are thrown back into the water.

Sport?
