Exactly like a gudgeon.

's OK, he can go eat deep fried pulley-pins if he wants to. Leaves more
of
the other sort for us ;-)

You know, gudgeon played such a part in my childhood
snip

I remember a little weir on the river Gade that ran through Cassibury Park,
Croxley Green, Hertfordshire which was my favourite haunt as a child in my
first days as a fisherman. We would also wonder up the river through the
park trying spots as we went. The Minnow was my first prey and I would be
'chuffed to bits' if I caught a good bagful. Then we started to get
Gudgeoned, Dace, Roach and one day to my utter amazement I picked up a small
rainbow trout. As early teenagers we fished the same water with hemp using
those wooden (bamboo I recall) roach poles and had huge numbers of roach.

I wonder what it's like these days (35ish years on).

There are some specimen Gudgeon at Field Farm Fisheries at Wrentham Suffolk.
It is normall a kids playground in Summer but in winter you have the place
to yourself & the Roach fishing is excellant I have had several three
pounders out of the house pond on Casters in the middle of winter.
