Neil,
You are right matey, they are out there! This was taken in St.Ives Bay about 14 years ago.
The story behind it is this. St.Ives RNLI, and RNAS Culdrose have an annual Fishing Competition. First prize always goes to the team with the biggest fish. Both teams were out in St.Ives Bay, and catching one or two good specimens, and the pilot of the Helicopter had a good idea of lowering the winchman down to reel in a large fish. Well you can see what happened ! Afterwards at the weigh in,the Culdrose Team were disqualified for using Live Bait.
