chris...it depends on where we decide to fish...if we stay at the painted rock then u have the chance of flatty's conger, pollock, coalies, wrasse and doggies or if we go round to the portmuck side then it will be all rough ground fishin for conger, wrasse, doggies, pollock and any other species u catch off the rocks but there sometimes can be a tide run and u MUST watch out for the waves comin off the ferries
2010 species list: coalies, flounder, whiting, pollock, cod, doggie, sea trout, pouting, poor cod, short spined sea scorpion, long spined sea scorpion, 3 breaded rockling, shore rockling, 5 breaded rockling, tompot blenny, mackie, placie, dab, bullhuss, conger, ballan wrasse, corkwing wrasse, goldshinny wrasse,thronie, lesser weaver, bass, tub gurnard, red gurnard, grey gurnard, shanny, rock goby, turbot,
