That's a beauty Keith. If you are over that way, take a walk up to the weir in Glemsford. Just past the island that is on the other side of the river you can find some real whoppers. We use to feed them lumps of cheese!

Ol' rubber lips, that's what we call a Chub around here. It's a good day when you get one on the end of your rod. No pun intended....honest

Here's a nice Pollack Jr. from my recent Shetland jaunt. The picture does an injustice to the true vibrancy of its orange coat, however....


 
Sadly of all the brown trout i caught i never took one pic. The Brown Trout is surely the most handsome of our native fish with the exception of maybe the Perch.
Cheers
