EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dated 1865, showcases the stunning beauty of the Coles Char or Enniskillen Char (Salvelinus colii), a native Irish fish belonging to the Salmonidae family. The Coles Char, with its distinctive grey and orange coloration, was a popular game fish in the waters of Lough Erne and other Irish lakes during the Victorian era. The Coles Char, also known as the Cole Charr, Cole, or Enniskillen Trout, is a charr species, a type of freshwater fish that is closely related to salmon and trout. This species is named after Lord Enniskillen, who was an influential figure in Irish angling during the 1800s. The Coles Char was once abundant in the waters of Ireland, particularly in Lough Erne, where it was highly prized by anglers for its fighting spirit and delicious taste. However, due to habitat loss, pollution, and overfishing, the population of this once-thriving species has declined significantly. Today, conservation efforts are underway to protect and restore the Coles Char population in its native waters. This photograph, taken in the 1860s, provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the natural beauty and historical significance of this fascinating fish species. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, when the pursuit of the Coles Char was a cherished pastime for many, and the fish was a symbol of the rich natural heritage of Ireland.
