Have you no pictures for us to see of all these fish you are catching Dan?
I would love to see the seatrout and mullet you have caught, bring a camera with you on your fishing trips, I always do.
It's nice to see pictures :wink:

It doesn't matter what he caught, he still caught something and so it would be nice to see pictures.
I know what mullet, bass, flounder, wrasse, dogfish etc. look like - does that mean that anyone who catches these fish shouldn't put pictures up of them on their reports because we all know what they look like already?
On the forum people like seeing pictures of fish that have been caught, even if they are only mackerel.
Someone has still went to the effort of going out and trying to catch something so we are happy for them when they do catch no matter what the species is.
I was only trying to help and advise him anyway because alot of people who I have spoke to on this forum don't actually believe that he has caught some of the fish he claims to have got on his reports and so I thought that if he was to start putting pictures up of them then they would have to beleive him.

just giving my opinion here (not stepping on anyones toes) but i have never taken a photo of a fish that i have caught in nearly 30 years of fishing i can see both sides of the argument on photos but dont feel the need to do it myself dont get me wrong i like to see pictures of fish other people have caught as much as the next man/woman but personally i would rather get the bait back in the water and catch another one :)
anyway i go through more than enough mobile phones through getting wet or dropped while fishing without having to shell out for cameras as well :lol:

The Mark where Dan got his Sea trout has been known to throw them up for years, so don't doubt.
I've seen Sea Trout round it when I've been there, as well as Mullet.
So Why does Daniel have to prove himself to anybody except himself?
He puts more hours into his fishing than anyone I know, and he knows what he's talking about, plenty of people don't.
So live and let live, Dan caught Sea Trout in Millisle, it is possible, its not like catching a Marlin in Norway.

Well done on getting those 2 Sea trout Dan, keep that wee spot to yourselve, maybe you'll get that big one soon! 8)

well done dan,mackerel are hard to get everywhere this year

i would not worry about posting photos for the people who don't believe that you are getting the fish in your posts,its great to see a young lad like you so keen on fishing and i would hate to see you put off fishing by some of the people on this site but seeing that you are so keen i don't think it will

all i can say to anyone who disbelieves dans reports is find something better to do then picking on a young lad,maybe take up golf instead:roll:
