Hey guys,
Not really a fishing story as such, but hoping your wisdom can help me identify what fish this is...
It was found on the side of a dam small private dam, close to the waters edge. As far as I knew there was only bass in this dam and it certainly doesn't look like the shape of a bass head (to my untrained eye) The dam is up in the drakensberg area so its colder water that we have.
I don't know how to attach pictures properly so ill have to do one at a time;
The head is approx 20cm long from the back of the gill plate and 12cm wide,
Its eyes are 6cm apart from middle of each eye and set 4cm back from the mouth tip,
Its mouth is 5cm wide
