Dab Fish
The Dab is the smallest of the flatfish and can be found on shell grit and sand sea beds. Dabs rarely grow to more than a 1lb (0,45kg) and the minimum size is (23cm) Baits: A top bait is slightly stale lugworm but you can also use ragworm. Mainly found on totally clean sand or sand/mud, occasionally light shingle and flat mussel beds. May venture across rougher ground and take up station on the cleaner sand patches. Some large adults prefer a solitary existence amongst mixed sand and mussel beds at the head of small estuaries, especially during the late spring period and early summer. Is found within a few yards of the shore and out to water depths exceeding 150m.
