Hi everyone,

Here are the nominations for the August 2012 Fish of the Month competition sponsored by Pallatrax.

Don't forget to add the weight of your fish to your gallery entries to ensure they're eligible for the competition. I don't include fish stated simply as 'double', even though they're obviously potential winners.

Many thanks to Pallatrax who offer a fantastic prize to the winner every month.

Andy,

I think you will find that the fish you have down from the Mole is actually from the Warks Avon. The guy's name is Mark Mole. :D
My vote is for the Thames fish of 14.8. Love the top and Luke's smile say's he is a happy bunny.
Well done to all though.

Wow!!!!!!!!! what a superb collection, and very very difficult to choose. But ive gone for the barbel shark in the last picture :D
 
as Derek say's wow.....I'd love any one of those fish to grace my net..my short list is either the Don fish or the Taff fish, can't make up my mind, hence not voted yet...I'm open to bribery though ...:D..LOL
 
If the Mole fish is wrongly titled, it needs to be changed on the main voting list as there is no Warks Avon fish listed. Start again?

Torn between the Swale, Kennet or Taff fish. Went for the Taff, just pips the Kennet with the Swale an honourable 3rd for me. All fantastic specimens - well done chaps.
 
Don for me cracking double and v thin on the ground from posibly one of the worst polluted rivers in europe.
