1939 W. C. Platts Grayling Fishing vi. 60 Rolt says that a one-year-old grayling is called a ‘pink’, and a two-year-old a ‘shut’ or ‘shote’ grayling... I have rarely come across these terms in general use.
1952 F. White Good Eng. Food i. iv. 55 The principal grayling rivers..are..the Teme (where yearling fish are termed ‘pinks’ and second year fish ‘shutts’ or ‘shots’ or ‘sheets’) [etc.].
