First off, Congrats to the winner of the free Dean Brody cd. Robert Dares of the Cottage Chronicles ( WWW.thecottagechronicles.com ). It was not overly hard for the random number generator to select from the entries but non the less Robert will be receiving this great album in the next week.
As for the fish pictured above, it is a Barbel. I know it looks like an American carp but apparently there is a few species of this fish in Europe that are a blast to hook o a fly rod. I'm sure they are in the same family as our carp but it will take bit more research to determine the specifics. In the mean time check out WWW.barbosconmosca.com , hit the translate option and do a bit or reading. It's always good to expand ones knowledge beyond your own world and see what makes those Spanish anglers tick.'Barbel 9-1'. - 7in x 6in. ink on paper. Email me for purchasing information.
