Well done Tony, seen a good few species on the pier but never expected a halibut!

I think it was a Turbot.

Most definitely a halibut - took me a minute or two to get hold of it & carry it up the steps it was thrashing about that much!

Crikey! I stand corrected! Talked to a lad who saw it, he must have got mixed up. Just shows you what's out there to be caught, just noone targets them. Well done!
