Hiya,
have you got a better pic??
At a guess I'd go for Plaice but that's all it is a guess only because it looks like it has quite vivid orange spots."ID geek "

Some flounder also have the orange spots. Looks like one to me because of the boney mouth area and diamond shape.

I did think it may have been a Megrim though?

100% not a megrim.
Looks like a spotty fluke (flounder) to me
SSA lure passing by at a steady course and speed might well tempt the fish; but if you give them something to chase - they cannot help themselves.....

Hiya,
Yup very true, unfortunately the picture is too pixlated to see if it is actual vivid orange or dull orang spots or if they are even orange spots Originally Posted by solehunter
