Thanks! I was trying to compare it to photos on google, and that was the closest i could get to an ID, just wanted to be sure, before putting it on the species list!!!!

 

Cheers

How big was the sea trout......remember to record it for "Fish of the month".....Adam may not pick it up on the forum otherwise.

Unfortunately, I didnt catch it - Dad or my brother did (not members) - im still stuck in Nottingham, a few hundred miles away from the action!! sad.gif

 

It would be interesting to know the specimen size, i couldn't find it on the internet...

Great fish Dan, I'd love to see one of those board Sweet Chariot...

 

Are you at Nottingham uni?

I didnt believe Dad when he told me... thought they were taking the piss and got it from tesco or something! Didnt even realise you could catch them outside the harbour!

 

And yes olli - first year at nottingham uni!

I don't believe there is a speciman for Sea Trout as I have asked before......."Game Fish" was the response, just like the Salmon.... as I manage to catch quite a few in club waters during the year... wink.gif

I had many a house in Lenton, Gloucester Ave, Rothesay Ave, Harrington Drive and one other... Only left 2 years ago but miss it like mad sometimes! Maybe time for a PhD me thinks!

The Joys of Lenton....

 

Kimbolton - most burgled street

3 times the national burglary rate

most robbed cash point in the uk...

 

Perfect for students! haha

 

I should be back to bournemouth soon, for a bit of Brittlestar codding especially if the weather stays like this!!!

 

What did you Study?

Posted

I did Electrical Engineering.

 

Nothing like a bit of danger to spice up uni life, if there's no risk of burglary/mugging/death it's not much of a night out in my book... Though it now all seems a bit tame compared to the night out I had on a stag in Sarajevo on Sunday - that really was deadly!

 

Yep keep the weather the same and roll on the starfish.

On closer inspection of photos, dad now suspects it to be a Salmon...

based on this description, would you agree? :

 

Concave tail, jaw line not behind eye, few spots below lateral line
