It fits the weight/length relationship given here.

On this scale a gobio of just over 7 inches should weigh 2 1/3 oz.

As for the record gudgeon despite extensive searching I can't find a photo (surely you would photograph such a beast) but maybe it would something like this baby barbel

I think they are a particularly nice looking fish, they remind me of a barbel but maybe that's just my strange mind
