screeming reels, if you can get a spurdog and a corkwing wrasse you will have caught one of every species on the board, you have 32 of the 34 species listed :shock: :shock:

hard to tell from the photo eric but it looks like a corkwing female ,they show the purple area when spawning .. rock cooks are slimmer bodied generally and a more orange/gold for females . .and not as deep bodied as the corkwing would be .
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

thought it was corking at first but did seem rather slim for one, possibly just because of the spawning as you said

Does that make him a plonker because he wouldnt wear gloves? He was only being sensible
