A quickie on the local stream

[Tigger]

My local small river was only a couple of foot above it's normal levels today but the amount of sediment/colour it was carrying wasn't ideal conditions for trotting. I think it made it difficult for any fish to see the bait unless it drifted right past them. I only had the last couple of hours daylight to fish and to be honest I was expecting a blank, thankfully it wasn't a blank but it wasn't far off, I only managed to get two dace and a chub. I should have took a pic of the dace and weighed them (I reckon one of them was a good pound or more) but the banking I was on was like a cliff face and a bit hairy for messin about.

Link has gone at the moment, and wasn't working for me before either.

 

Can you not just put the pics on the forum? It's pretty simple.

Is the fish in the photo a dace or a chub? The anal fin looks convex in the pic, but I realise you would have had a better view.
