Wee sea scorpion

I managed to get out for a few hours on saturday and decided to head over to greenock at the custom house quay.

I caught a couple of wee codling and another first for me, a long spined sea scorpion. This was one ugly looking fish, although it had a nice pale blue underside. I have since been told that these can give a nasty sting but not sure if this is true or not.

species list for 2013 is..

mackerel

flounder,

brown trout,

LSD, lesser spotted dogfish,

codling,

pollock,

pike,

sea scorpion.,

biggest of the year was the Pike at 8LB 7oz.

I don't think i,ll be getting out again before the new year.
