Good thing you waited until now to catch them rather than last month though.

 

Remember the famous warning "beware the ides of March".

As phone said ide are a separate species. I believe I'm right in saying that ide are the same as orfe and have smaller scales than roach. They're not common in the UK and I've never seen one here myself in the wild. However, a friend did catch one about 20 years ago from the Beult, a tributary of the Medway.

 

Ceretainly orfe, including the golden variety, are being stocked in commerial stillwaters, so we may hear more about them in the future.

The Ide is pretty widespread throughout Europe although largely in the north and centre rather than the warmer Mediterranean climate. There are a couple of established populations in the UK, with one of the best established being in the River Calder in Yorkshire. They are indeed the original species that the golden orfe was bred from.

One was caught from the River Trent at Cromwell Weir several seasons ago. Now I've mentioned that, all the swims will be taken up by ide anglers after June 16th.
