| The lake is also home to a wide variety of fish, such as the rare vendace, roach, dace and pike. |
| One salmonid species found in these lakes is vendace, which is a planktophagous fish. |
| Nothing is ever found visible to the naked eye in the stomach of the vendace. |
| It is also popular among anglers, being noted for its trout and an introduced rare fish, vendace. |
| The declining populations of the fish are thought to be due to introduced species that utilise the native vendace as a food source, and also due to pollution. |
| The aim of the byelaws is to protect populations of rare fish, including vendace, schelly and arctic charr, which live in Cumbria's lakes. |
