Saintly Fish Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Hi Dave, glad you finally got out to catch some fish. Sounds like you had a good day out. The garmin stuff is quite easy to get your head around, you just need to find the time to sit there and pootle about trying different settings etc. If you have any serious difficulties then the Garmin UK technical help line is very useful. The operators are knowledgable and helpful. For now though, if you can email me the pics I'll put them up for you. Thanks for sharing your report! daio web 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then choose a smaller size of photo. It helps to crop your photos by a small bit before hand too. daio web 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is, but fish do change colour to adapt and blend to their surroundings. Seeing as the BC is dark and dirty, this ray may just naturally colour to its surroundings. I've seen real bright red/orange cod in Norway that live in kelp beds of the same shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 @daio web, looks like the consensus is blonde. If it's a personal best stick the pic up in the PB thread here: https://www.offshoreoutlaws.co.uk/forum/28-pb-gallery/ Congrats 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, agreed, we get wreck Pollock that are a silvery green colour, and we also get kelp Pollock that can sometimes almost be orange in colour.
