Two species have disappeared entirely, one probably extinct and the other a complete mystery. Details to follow. Dabs occur in early spring. There is a list of about 25 others encountered intermittently and although present always I do not see them all the time. Grey Mullet fry at one time the numbers exceeded in on shoal the complete numbers of all the fish I have seen in my life by a hundred times. The shoal was over two miles long.
