Welcome to the site. cracking first post. Waterfoot pier can and does through up some amazing fish. I have heard cracking stories of people not being able to stop fish and burn thumbs on line trying to slow the fish..

well done mate :D
did it go back or did you keep it for the pan ? that pier has threw up odd fish the last few years including cuckoo+ thornback rays
if it cant get its jaws round a 1/0 its not worth catching [ mullet excluded ]
