Thanks for the report Dizzy, as always very interesting to see your posts from the otherside of the big pond, congrats on your catch looks like patience paid off, the Wrasse look like Christmas wrasse we used to have one in our saltwater aquarium...we have wrasse here but not that colorful.
Thanks for the guide, and the interesting report as usual, BTW how many Go pros do you have on you at any givin time? I have a hard enough time with one...lol

I did those trips on the 9 foot mini-X - great fun - just the 2 Go Pros and a camera, but when I am after the bigger stuff on the Trident 15, I run 3 Go Pros and 2 stills cameras - it can get a bit hectic !

Thanks guys - There are only a handful of places where you catch the gilthead bream, and they are only there for a very shoprt period of time. We have a big problem with netters in the UK, and the Gilthead bream are prized for eating, so they do get hammered by the netters. I had to be very careful about the photos I posted, in case people worked out where I was. I had a video of the gilthead bream, but I could not post it becuase the netters would work out where I was.

I guess you guys don't have that problem ?
