turned up at 12 o'clockish last night. a little bit of movement on the water and everthing looking quite canny. put some big baits of tasty lug and rag out on a pennel rig to tempt the plump coddies out of hiding. after watching codseeker land a bagful of big'uns the night or two before on king size baits i thought i want some of that action. well, their it was, nowt, 3 hours slip by and still nowt. the odd whitey and a bass got brought in by some others but no coddies yet. all the other lads bar one had given now and left to chase some zeds around the bedrooms. the luck changed after that,i managed to beat my own p.b. which was paltry anyway at just 2.5lbs by snaffling a 6lb 6oz cod. this was closley followed by another of 5lb 1oz. the other angler that stopped the night is another forum member and he hand balled the fish up the wall for me. canny lad he was, got them both up without a hint that any would drop off. he even got his camera out and took a few piccies which he said he would post later today. mick quale i think he said his name was.
i managed another codling of 1lb 12oz and a whitey which was past chucking back cos the hook had gone too far down its throat..
well, thats me thoroughly chuffed to smudgies and bitten by the fishing bug again.
