British Record Fish Committee. Coarse Fish Records

Hi, I am trying to compile a list of all current and previous Coarse Fish
which have held a place in the BRFC list. I am not interested in the ones
which were subsequently thrown out but would like to find details of all
those that have held the record for a time. I have listed the ones I have
already, underlining the parts where my information is incomplete. I would
me grateful if anyone could supply me with any of the missing information or
corrections,details of any records omitted or any earlier records.

Any assistance would be most appreciated.

Thanks.

John Bedford
