Hi all I'm looking for a small pocket size book to show different pictures of each species and the specimen weights and lenghts for the irish coast .any such thing out there?thanks.

here are two downloadable guides to help you identify fish species, the first is by the central fisheries board (now inland fisheries ireland) and the second made by SAI members Ronald and stevecrow74

both are .pdf format (you will need acrobat reader to view these files)

There's a Collins Gem Guide to Fresh and Salt Water Fish. It is available on-line. It will not have records and specimen weights though.

the collins gem guide is a great wee pocket sized book dan. we have one i keep in the car. if you want a handy way to keep note of the specimen and record sizes just write them on the particular species that apply to you in pencil on each page. that way you can rub them out each year to keep track of your own p.b.'s. that's what we do
