impressive list.... you dont happen to know a certain Colin Penny from weymouth do you?

[zonnkers]

I guess you see the Red Band Fish which came from Colins boat

[Coddo]

i did notice the red band fish yes, also the various goby's and ballions wrasse... he is a master at the art of species hunting and know the inshore rock marks around portland like the back of his arse! i belive he is nearing 60 species this year?

[zonnkers]

When we were down that way last month he was on 57 which was his best year
My brothers should be out with him on Sunday so that might increase a bit

That would be Boat , Beach , Pier , Rocks , the Thames at Erith and rockpools (do'nt laugh there are a lot of species in rockpools but you need a short Roach pole fished to hand)
