Not that I fish for them off the rocks, they get too battered though tbf it looks like they handled this one quite well

Yep reckon so. Generally a bit early for the big females but they’re not going to turn down that much free food.

I’d be happy to target them but seen too many get battered on the rocks, so tend to avoid.

I'll probably join my mate over your way, as didn't make it over Wales in the end... nearly 4hrs each way to find the mark full, kind of puts you off
At least North Devon is closer
