Yeah I think its mainly aimed at the general public, most of us would get 11-13 there. There are two topics in this whole world I could go on Master Mind with and thats Fish and Star Wars.

no bother

only one i wasnt sure about was the witch at the end. have heard of them before but have never seen one - but the other answer options gave it away somewhat..
and those whiting are not the freshest looking! almost unrecognisable

@ corbyeire: lemon sole and dover sole completely different looking! lemon sole is round like a lemon, dover sole is a looong flatfish...

plenty of pics in google images

and yip, angler fish, aka in the commercial industry as 'monk fish', in the first pic

Why do they always use the squashed beaten up examples of fish on these posters and web sites sometimes you can't really tell what they are their so mangled

13/13, but lucky guess for the sole. As others have said first one is an Angler fish
