these are just some of the fish i caught in turkey i also got very small bass,but too small to take pic of.
I was told you need a licence to fish in turkey,but when i spoke to the life guard he said i could fish if i gave him the fish as it was a private jetty,so some of the fish i gave him i would have put them back,when he was not there i did put them back.

This fish is a balloon fish and very poisonous the locals told me not to touch it,it was caught at distance on raw chicken.looks like a parrot fish to me.
this fish is a yellow ? can not remember but a great fish to catch it goes like a macky and is supposed to be very nice to eat.
a mullet and a very spinney fish not sure of name because could not understand the locals.

another one of those spinney fish
some for the locals dinner
this was my pb mullet had a great fight off it,
Fishing in turkey was a new experience for me,and would love to do it again.
One day i was fishing with the life guard and i had 3 fish in 3 casts and one was about 4lb but it was lost on the lift this happened three times one after another.
Fishing at distance can produce very large fish all of which i lost, when these fish were hooked it was like hooking a jumbo jet and the line broke every time.The wifes rod ended up in the water off a fish, i did get it back after a tourist dived in for it, once again the line was snapped
Anyone going to turkey to fish i advise that you take heavy line or wire if you intend fishing at distance,float fishing for small bass is great but a couple of times i hooked a big fish and the line snapped.
In total me and the wife had over 100 fish in 12 days and lost about 10.
raw chicken top bait, but take some thread.
