    Oneshot,

    nice catch from both land and sea. Can you tell me what the fish is that is behind the John Dory in the left corner? I think you have another one there upside down also.
    Thanks.

    That would be Butterfish, they are only found in NZ ( I believe ) and are an incredible eating fish. There was half a dozen under the Paua in that photo.

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Also known as greenbone in this neck of the woods.

    Old guys used to catch them on a rod and line with a small hook using sand-hoppers as bait.
