What do you consider to be a brace of fish?

 

I know it is two fish but how about when thay are caught.

 

When talking of a big brace if you are doing a weeks session and catch one fish on Sunday and one on friday is this a brace.

 

I would venture to say that a brace should be caught in the same session within 24 hours of each other.

 

What do you think?

Something to sort your teeth out if they look like a bag of spanners !

I tend to refer to them as a brace if caught in a shortish session less then 24 hours but normally for me anyway 12 or so hours either in day session or if night fishing on the same night.

One fish maybe just fortunate

A brace may be the coincidence of two bits of fortune

 

What you want is a leash - that suggests you may know what you are doing :)

 

...and within a matter of an hour or so. Claiming a "brace" for one on Saturday morning and t'other on Tuesday afternoon smacks of desparation!

Bring 'em back together from the same session and a cock and a hen, then you have a brace!

 

Otherwise, you've caught two fish!

Eating wild caught fish is good for my health, reduces food miles and keeps me fit trying to catch them........it's my choice to do it, not yours to stop me!

I was gonna say...a brace of pheasnts or partridge etc but a brace of fish doesn't sound quite right.

A guy on my match circuit always brings a few pheasants and i normally have a brace off him which is always the cock & hen bird , not bad either for a fiver , also rabbit 3 quid and venison 4 quid per lb
