What a day …

Favoured a late sail on Monday to miss the LW slack, but with 15 – 20mph forecast from early afternoon, we set off at 7am instead.   First wreck – drift set, fish hooked, started well with a couple 6lb landed. Deteriorated thereafter – plenty of 3-4lb nothing more.   Decided to use the slack for a move.   Second Wreck – drift set and again straight into fish! Phew! Two drifts later two fat mofo seals arrived and took advantage of the easy pickings. Couple drifts more we again fed the cute lovely seals and decided to move on. […]

Young guns

We all had a brilliant day afloat last Saturday, these guys caught fish – 12lb the biggest for Tomos.   Will at only 6 years old – fished an 8ft flowing trace, dropped over the side, caught fish, never snagged the wreck, never tangled his trace ( all without help, he just got on with it ) and then helped dad fillet on the way in.   2 adults, 1 jnr and 3 young guys – the youngsters would shame the angler in any man!   It really was been a great day fishing More photos in Gallery 275

The rewards from a successful venture offshore. Plenty of fillets We’ve enjoyed a successful few days offshore this week, the fish boxes were rammed full. Majority of fish 5/6lb nothing like the double figures we’re accustomed to this time of year, but still plenty of them. Nothing is wasted the fish carcasses go off to Gareth’s Shellfish for lobster and crab bait Buckets full of fillets from Thursdays trip and they’re still at it. Mainly pollack with codling, ling, coalfish and some pout. More photos in Gallery 274

Good weather helps

Sunshine, calm seas and a complete contrast Thursday to the weather we had on the previous Monday. Offshore wrecking again and the fish were feeding from the first drop. A few wrecks fished and rods bent every time .   6lb average with the best falling just short of double figures, excellent early season fishing.   Mark Cain testing out the new PENN Fishing Regiment III 12/20 boat rod with great results, single or double shots every drift, the rod proved an excellent companion to his PENN Fathom 15LD2speed.
