Gerry,
The wrasse very rarely hook themselves, if you know where they are and they're biting then it's a matter of being ready for very quick strikes when they bite hard - no pressure :D

Nice Fishing Gerry. Congrats on the new Species. I'm heading over that way this week and we should be able to sort out that Wrasse issue. Rag Worm will fix that, in actual fact you may be plagued by them later in the week :wink:
Sent you PM.
