Bernie told me what it was

Sat, 2008-06-14 17:49

I can't remember now, something like a 13 stripe spotted cod or something like that.
Definately not a Rankin, god knows we pulled in heaps of them.

I think you are all wrong

Sat, 2008-06-14 22:28

It is a 13 spined small spotted cod or something like that. Bernie made a special deal out of telling me about it, but my old age has meant I have forgotten what he said.
I would have guessed a Malabar too but I am sure he said it was something slightly different.
