Episode Eight: My 2024 LRF Species Hunt – Hartlepool

Hartlepool LRF Plaice, Dab, Stickleback, Whiting and Scorp are all added to my tally in this video. I headed North to get a Monkey off my back. Having failed twice already for a Dab, I really wanted to tick it off on this attempt. Thankfully, I did it! I also added a Plaice, a lifer! Taking my yearly tally to 30, and pushing my LRF Species Tally to 73. So this was well worth the effort!
