Rudd Details - Sardinius erythropthalmus Rudd are found in lakes and canals and sometimes in slow-flowing rivers. They thrive in lowland lakes with rich vegetation and plenty of invertebrate life forms. In summer, rudd rise to take small insects from the surface, and they can sometimes be caught using dry fly tactics and small flies. Their bright red fins are a distinguishing feature, but definite identification is made difficult because rudd can hybridise with roach, bream and dace. Rudd A 2 pound rudd is a specimen fish, and in ideal conditions can grow quite a lot bigger. |
