Here is an abstract picture of a fairly common British species targeted by many sea anglers across the UK. Have you got any idea as to what it is?
Comment on this post with your thoughts and ideas, I will let you know soon who is right! If we gets lots of responses I might even find a prize for the next abstract sea fishing image.
Good luck!
