You have plenty of fish, Theo, that you aren't going to see. I've been told the ratio is 5:1, but my personal experience says it's more like 3.5:1 or 4:1 at worst, of dead fish to observed dead fish.
All that salinity in
your water makes a higher % of dead fish float.
If you're like me you'll look forward with extreme nervousness to catching your first live fish.
Yep. And that lure I threw in a few times yesterday didn't count.
