Ive googled baby mackerel but im not sure, its perch shaped but the wrong colour, are there perch hybrids?!

[dnks34]

Got it, Sea Bass!!

[dnks34]

Looks the same?

[deebee29]

Certainly looks the same

Love Sea Bass

[dnks34]

Its the first one I have ever seen, beautiful little fish!

It was released unharmed and shot off like a bullet!

Now you just need to catch Daddy or Mummy

Yep - looks like a sea bass to me too, often caught off Landguard Point at Felixstowe.

Bass for sure, since when has one of our native fish been renamed Sea Bass......its a Bass unless in a restaurant. this schoolie is clearly very undersized so lets hope the rag that looks dry didnt take to much of its protectivness from it when it was returned.....

 

I have caught Mullet at reedham in the past but never a Bass but have heard of them before in that area.

@Jonzo, I can't see either and it's hosted internally(I normally don't see externally hosted files as they are blocked).. Something up?

[stumpy]

I could see the pics when I replied 9/8 but not today if that helps.
