Quite a big fish it caught! I wish the blacks were opened up a bit more, and you could clean the white spots on the perch. Love the BG colours, and the composition is good.

Great comp Stephen, and I feel you have exposed the blacks and whites nicely.

Very nice image. Love the contrast of the colors of the fish against the background. As noted, I'd clean up the white spots on the perch.

Great catch both of you. I like the pose and the fish adds to it. I agree regarding the spots and would love to see a larger image, which makes commenting much easier.

I like the pose and that yellow fish is pretty. The background is very painterly looking and really lovely. Good exposure control. Agree that the white spots should be removed. Nice capture!

Lovely colours of BG and fish contrast well with the crisp B&W of the Pied. Did you use any flash? - seems to be a bright catchlight in the eye and some bounce back from water droplets.
