Irish Record Fish

Roy Gretton and the 7lb record roach x bream hybrid

Freshwater species

In freshwater, the majority of records date from the 1990’s. Others including perch, river brown trout and river pike were established in the 1940’s, 1950’s and the 1960’s respectively.

Although the salmon and lake trout records date from the late 1800’s, the ISFC satisified itself as to the veracity of these claims.
