Almost there


With the new season just around the corner there is a good possibility you might hook a couple of Kelt in the early months,these fish must be handled carefully and returned to the water.
Kelt are fish that have spawned ,The tell tail signs are,long and thin with an oversized head,saggy belly,distended vent,gill maggots and the fact that it dose not give a good account for it's self  is another sign that you have a Kelt, also not all Kelt are coloured up as a well mended Kelt often turn silver again.
If in doubt please put it back.
