Fair play to the gillie - he got a soaking, but he held on to the fish!

The YouTube description states those guys are experienced at fishing, I have to doubt that. Apart from their comical antics, the guy landing the salmon kept hold of the handle and therefore multiplied the weight/difficulty, he should have just held the net head.

If your are a young man rugby socially is the way to go, having been in hundreds of rugby clubs it is the place to meet nice people who do not look down on where you have come from. I played first class rugby in England and Wales and they treated everybody the same even at Twickenham. The best night I had in London was at London Irish in the 70s.

They did do well in catching the fish but do you think that some of the clients would have happy with the ghillie.

Reminds me of lamson trout fishing last week, using a landing net borrowed from the fishing hut.
Nets fish, only to realise there's a big hole in the bottom. Fish drops through and dropper snags in mesh, followed by a few choice words. ;D
