Summary[edit]

Description
English: Kelt and Kype on the Lour Burn. This is the head of a male salmon or cock salmon which has been involved in the spawning ritual and has subsequently died. It can be recognised as a male by the curved jaws which are known as the Kype and which develop as the fish nears breeding condition. A female salmon is referred to as a hen but lacks the exaggerated kype of the cock fish.
