Went down the pier today with davy and pete from the forum ,weather was horrendous but at least there was a few fish knocking around ,pete borrowed my spare mini rod for a dangle in the boulders and the jammy ********** got a specimen rockling first drop, lovely fish and we thought we were in for a decent session ,but it was all quite after that bar a few small shore rockling and davy managing to produce another tadpole fish .
Not a great day weather wise but good to see a half decent fish for pete after making the journey down .
btw pete has the photos but i think he has another use for them :lol:

Here I felt bad...using your gear and all... :) It was one of the jammiest bit of fishing I've pulled of yet :lol: Big thanks to yourself and Davy for the trip, really enjoyed the session and need less to say was over the moon with the rockie. Really neat to see the tadpole fish too, class looking creature. Really opened my eyes that type of fishing, showed the value of adjusting tactics and really exploring your own doorstep.

we'll have to compare photos ,i suppose thats the beauty of catch and release and looking after your fish ,you always have a chance to get them again only hopefully bigger .

Ithink the markings are pretty unique to each fish so a couple of photos usually do the trick and i think its prob less stressful for small fish ,ok for big things but rockling are pretty small .

even something like a marker pin through one of the fins with a 5mm bead stuck on the other side....shouldnt be too stressful if just through a fin...? different colour beads for different fish etc...
