Yeah it is just a ruffe, Fair play though mate quite difficult to catch in most waters. similar to perch and have similar mouths to barbel!
Well done though!

The record for a Ruffe is 5oz 4drams so you've either broken the record by a long way or it isn't a Ruffe?
I don't know what it is if it's not a Ruffe though - an albino Perch?

its definately a ruffe it has the pointed tail and double dorsal fin! And barbels on its mouth

Perch have much larger eyes aswell.
