Well done on getting out and catching some fish but You sure they weren't coleys you caught not pollack, their seems to be a lot of them in the river at the minute, just because you don't hear of many pollack being caught in the river.

The way to tell them apart is the lateral line - it is straight in a coley and curved over the pectoral fins in a pollack. They can look pretty much the same apart from that. Well done on your catch.
