Bass - I am obsessed with this fish and I really want one (going to SW France this summer - maybe my dream will come true...)

Tope - the potential fight with this fish makes me froth at the gash.....

Ray - any type - just want to marvel at it's beauty.....

I'd like to add a Lemon Sole to my list, seen a couple in Tesco today, really fresh, one looked as though it was still alive the way it's eyes were but it's a great looking fish!

Ok, i'll lure you up with the false intention of throwing a horse, then cunningly make you fish Ballyholme beach to see if you catch anything... You won't. Har! :) :|
