Malc Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Well that's what we're calling it. For some reason mackerel sizes have been going bonkers here with increasing length and girth, biggest this week was a 40cm fish with plenty pushing for the title plus the launce are getting bigger with one weighing 82gm at home on my digital scale so possibly 90gm+ fresh weight. Not surprised that a BFT is caught off Whitby really! Just need the herring shoals to get closer in.

To my eyes its a porbeagle as I can't see a tail lobe. I won't post it as its a waste of an hour of your life. Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
