Well done on the weever roger, a new species for the year? :lol: Have mistaken them for small whiting myself when fishing in the dark, now terrified of whiting.

I know your pain stuck my hand into a sandeel net and got a nice stab, bit of blood almost had a panic attack was waiting for the pain to start! Was never as happy to see a tiny mullet with is spikes raised!!! To this day I'm very slow to stick my hand in!

i had a seal out infront of me about 20 minutes before i got the bass if you look at his belly you can see a gash in it,i take it from a seals tooth? upon cleaning him out it was aparent it went right through to his gut,i saved him from a slow agonizing death i,m sure :P
