New Species

[round_ourway]

Caught this at the weekend.. unfortunately i didnt take a picture of it because it was used as bait... it was small. very holographic, the scales didnt come of like a herring or anything. at first i thought it was a scad,

any ideas

[corbyeire]

smelt?

[round_ourway]

yep just checked it there

are they any good for bait..

[corbyeire]

havent a clue - you very rarely see them being used for bait

its more a case of yourself there coming across one while fishing and trying it out

id say if it was some killer bait - the cat would have been let out of the bag at this stage

still nice one for the species list!

i cut it into slices and used it with whites and maddies.. it did catch a couple of undersize of flounder.. there wasnt really much of scent of it to be honest.

when i first lifted it i thought it was a weaver and thought that wee fluker just got me.. i let out a sigh and checked the trunks, then checked to make sure it wasnt.

thanks for clarification coby
