HI
I caught a small multi coloured fish from the Mersey in Stockport and
can not identify it. I'v scoured the net. Pestered the staff in the
local tackle shops but can't get any clue to what it is . If anyone can
identify it then i would be most gratefull. You can view the fish by

Many Thanks in advance for your time

This is a minnow. Something doesn't add up here though. You are very
unlikely to catch a minnow with a big hook like that and it also looks
very similar to a rig that I and locals used to use in Germany to catch
trout. A lip hooked live minnow with a maggot on the hook too could be
absolutely lethal below a float. I got my old minnow net out on the
Girvan one day and tried the same technique. I had 3 sea trout within an
hour in broad daylight.
