      Perch fishing in Malmö has been great this January and February. Can hardly remember the last time I caught a small one.. From earlier today. Pretty fucking cold though!

                Feel like a fraud posting here as I'm at best a casual fisher, but I dragged this pretty wee fella up today (and delivered him safely back). Question is, what is he?

                      @neph93 I think it's a "Cuckoo wrasse". Funny name in english haha, called "blågylta" in swedish. A female at that, the males are usually blue.

                        Called a tangwrasse in Norwegian I've now discovered. I'm staying on the south west coast, not far from Ålesund, and they're new to me. They don't do well further north.

                          I thought it was a Shore Rockling, but actually, it is what we (in more civilised countries) call a Cuckoo Wrasse:

                            I looked up Rocklings and concluded that mine must have been a Nordic Rockling and that wrasse was a Scandi name, but OK. Tang means seaweed in Norwegian. Interestingly mine was 30cm so a relatively large specimen. I'm planning on some late fishing in an hour or two if the kids stay asleep…

                              Spot of rain so I'm wussing out of night fishing. Here are some Chups instead.
