was on the carron friday night with an other member who was on fire with his catch rate of wee broonies JS. i caught a new species to add to my fishing cv very nice looking fish around the 1.5lb mark took a couple of snaps and carefully returned made my night

Hi Cumbrian, that's an unusual fish. What are they? They look very similar to the Shad that we get here on the Herefordshire Wye catchment. The Shad are a member of the Herring family, that enter fresh water to spawn.

Thanks for that Jim, that's a completely new species for me. I wasn't even aware of their existence. They remind me of the Arctic Char, that are found in the Lakes. Not by appearance, but in their mystique.
