Pity about the scales hook going through its eye you should always use a sling or towel when weighing them!

its not in its eye but your right a sling or bag is the best way, tony gets very protective of smoothies he didnt talk too me for a week last year when i ate a 4lber (i wasnt too fussed on it so the rest of them are safe )

Thats a cracking Hound Alan - well done. As you say in the report they give some fight.
Have to get my first this year

thats a cracking smoothie there alan. well done man . only ever had one half that weight so i can only imagine the scrap that fella gave you . it's great fishing on the beach for them as you can let your drag off a bit and have fun playing them in the surf

Geat fishing alan, they are the best pound for pound quick fighter right til the edge, sometimes i do be shakin its just goin to get off after bringing them right to the edge., well done fab fish.

Nice hound,,worth every mile!

Excellent fishing and a cracking hound
Was it fresh or frozen peeler they were falling to???

Beautiful fish, just a shame to see him weighted like this
