Wow a corkwing! Im really pleased with that one. I caught it on Weymouth Stone Pier. The others were from Chesil. I have some more to add too and will update the table as soon as I get a chance (it's the middle of the night now and I am just about to head back from a good session on Weymouth pier )

You will need to scroll down a bit but this shows the only way to show for sure:

Table updated lads.

Wee Ver they look like two long spined sea scorpions to me but I am happy to be corrected if anyone else can comment.

Here are two more for me both caught on Weymouth Pier which puts me top of the table ....

I agree actually the lip bit looks the same and gills not defined enough to really say

Well done Mike, Weymouth pier is a cracking venue for species hunting. I'm surprised you haven't had a lot more "mini" species to be honest, is the weather as cack down there as it is up home at the moment?

As for the Bullheads, agree they are both Long Spined. I've had a few and have been desperate to try to id one as a Short Spined but no joy so far...

 

[Wee Ver]

Some 1 hav a look at my coley is it actually a coley?

 

[lumpsucker]

What makes you think it isnt a coley?

 

[Wee Ver]

Think it may b a pollock Some 1 told me a good way to tell a coley from a pollock is coley tail has a v in end and Pollocks is flat n tha looks flat to me

Looks different to this 1

 

[codcatcher3000]

lateral line as shown says to me its a coaley
