                If you haven't already chuck the rig away hooks and everything. You won't catch on it again. Dirty things they are

                        Not a lamprey. They're different fish. Its defo a hag fish. A lamprey has a different mouth and colour

                              they also knot your line into half hitches.

                              i watched a program about them on discovery, it showed them knotting themselves up to rip chunks off there food.

                              told a mate when fishing on shields and sure enough his line had half hitches in it.
