nothing really special about them, wilky,usually caught while fishing for mackerel all around ireland, roughly the same size as mackerel and fight the same too.

Re: Scad?
ah shad, the best known spot for them is st mullins in county carlow, im afraid you've missed the window for them, there caught around may when they enter the rivers to migrate.
