Long as that's all you grab...at first glance I thought it was a silver perch .
Bernie

What the thing he grabbed??? you thought it was a silver perch?? does that mean you were also there Bernie?..

[BernieQ2]

949 pages in this book so I might take a while........ !!!
Looked up all the possible ones but still no clearer.
Be interesting to hear Brian's opinion of the taste test?
Yabbies have gone quiet today too.

I'm surprised Bruce let you do that.... must be the farmers touch.

He loved it jon, and so did the fish

This morning I caught a thief trying to pinch yabbies or shrimp out of a yabby pot.
Can anyone please help identify it?
It has smaller scales than a carp. Forked tail. No teeth at all. Very distinct silver in scales and head.
Sorry the photo isn't too clear & it's too late to take another shot ..... it might be in Brian,s belly by now!!
If no-one can help I might send the photo to the Fisheries & the museum.
Last time I caught a strange fish only the museum could help me.

OK, I had it identified as a Bony Bream.
Seems there are tonnes of them in the Lower Murray and never catch them via line.
