Re: ID my fish please
Spot on Jon. Got one on Sunday morning down near the heads on a squid bait. Normally I get them on soft plastics twitched along the bottom. This was the first one I`ve kept and eaten, safe to say, I won`t be releasing them in future...very, very tasty..If your going to release them, use a wet towel to handle them, as their scales peel off really easily..fishingvic wrote:I don't think there's any point in guessing.....this doesn't really help anyone. :dontknowMaster-pro wrote:I think it's a gurnard

Also got to see a Blue Devil on Sunday, (caught by my mate), spectacular fish. Released at the side of the boat, didn`t even swing it in.
