Default Fish ID question 2
Following on from Jim 3lb-er's Fish ID thread, I have another poser. I came across these at my local supermarket. Very worrying, I'm sure they're some sort of exotic invasive species. Its a tough one. I know they're not pike, but what do you guys think?

No I didn't unfortunately, on account of the fact that I couldn't be arsed. If we wait long enough though Bruce will probably put some photos up

Sailfish.

Have been recently stocked in the Thames Estuary recently.

Now breeding like **** in the tropical temperatures found off Southend at this time of year.

Not fishing for them purely based in principle!

Crazy isn't it? You go out after the doggies and you can't get through the chuffin' Marlin. Its beyond a joke frankly.
