Carp
Tench
Roach
Perch
Mirror carp are a type of fish, commonly found in the United Kingdom and Europe.
They can grow in excess of 60lb - the last few British record fish have all been mirror carp.
Tench have a stocky, carp-like shape, olive-green skin, darker above and almost golden below. The mouth is rather narrow and provided at each corner with a very small barbel. Maximum size is 70 cm.
Roach are typically a small fish, often reaching no more than about 35 cm in length. A fish of 1 kg (2¼ lb) would be considered a largish specimen but they can, attain weights just in excess of 1.8 kg (4 lb).
Perch are lovers of both still and running water, but prefer to live close to, beneath or among structures like wooden pilings and boat-houses, sunken tress, deep holes and gullies, and road and railway bridges which span the river systems. They are happiest when surrounded by the vertical stems of marginal plants.
