Puffer Fish.
A quiet hour in work gave me the opportunity to do a little fishing. Cast in inch pieces of finger mullet and lost a lot to crabs, but having a good pull, struck and reeled in this monster! A Puffer Fish. I was quite surprised by the amount of spines on its little body, and was relieved when another fisherman came across with gloves to remove the hook and return it to the sea.
A lot of the fish here seem to be armoured with spines so I have now invested in a pair of gloves. Though trying my best to keep fishing gear to a minimum, it is starting to expand!
