Dear names scholars,
 
I realise many of you will be busy in Cornwall at the moment, but when you get back, I would be very grateful if anyone were able to post any references they might have to sources of information on vernacular names for fish, e.g. an alternative name for a "codling" used on the Yorkshire coast, or what they call a "trout" in Hampshire. 
Such information is seemingly harder to find than e.g. plant names, bird names, etc.
 
all best,
Jonathan Roper
