Lads can we leave the fish vomit alone. I'm having my lunch. :D

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.

Its a goby all right, Ive had the doubtful pleasure of seeing them in that state several times, not from the stomach of a fish though - that would have made up for it

So would the conclusion be: a goby on top; and a gold shinny wrasse below.

That would be an accurate conclusion I reckon. Anyone seen any other interesting things coughed up from fishes stomachs?

Seen a small megrim coughed up out of a cod in an estuary last year. Probably not that unusual just that megrim are deep water fish (I believe?) so the cod must have travelled a long way between when it ate the megrim and got caught in the estuary
