I caught one from Branksome Chine, Bournemouth, many many years ago; before the days of digital cameras and the internet.
It took me ages to research what it was.

Thanks wouldn't of seen that . Always wonder where these little colonies of rarer fish meet and breed . Great stuff ,heard of a couple round here on the south coast from piers before I think

Unusual shore catch as they normally inhabit deep water. Never caught one but have eaten one, they're very tasty.

Can you eat them?

I remember there was one on Morrisons fish counter some time ago - it ended up in my frying pan and was delicious!

I think they catch quite a few off Cornwall.

It's similar to a Witch, tastes the same as well

I was shown a pic of this fish Monday down in Plymouth, apparently it came from elphinstone.
