The first gummy we caught we kept and it had babies when we gutted her straight after landing, were alive and we released them, swam off strong, I read up after that they have a good chance of survival, i'll try n find the article....

Those harlequin fish look amazing, great eating too.

Good work on trying the save the fingerlings.  I am seeing a few gummies around so hopefully they survive to grow full size.  Is there any signs that the mother is pregnant that I can look out for or do you only find out once they are gutted?
