cheers guys, there are a few
cheers guys, there are a few different bulleye's in the book I have.
I was thinking it was a Bronze Bullseye, but as Ryan said Common Bullseye.
"base colour varies from silvery to dark purplish brown ? this is more Gold in colour."
Thanks Ryan, I did try to fish for some flat heads with NO taker's this time round, never mind next time I'll give it a shout around Rocky Bay.

yeh!
Yeh Karl i was guessing the Common but after looking at the Rough in my ID book it looks like a match!
Rocky Bay would be worth a go for sure & PT Roe....all the best!
