TAKE ACTION
Enter the watery shallows filled with seaweed, barnacles and snails you might be able to spot our little finned friends – fish! You might find a beautiful blenny or a gorgeous goby – or maybe something that isn’t a fish at all. Use our handy guide to help you develop the safest technique for catching our scaly friends.
Develop your catching skills and learn how to safely find and catch rock pool fish so that you (and the fish) have a safe experience.
