I hate fog 
...and it was thick this morning at 9.00 when I went down the marina, so after a chat with Allan.. (the local boat builder) 
...I went back home, had a sarnie...and pondered what to do 
.... at 11.30 I thought what the hell and went back down.... still foggy but not quite as bad..
I only had an hour and a half before the dock gate shut so it was a quick dash in a choppy sea to the nearest wreck. The drift was quick at 1.5 - 2.0 knots I like my orange toys and lost a few rigs to the wreck, so i put on one of my only 2 orange shads 
...a few drifts and nowt ....I lost the 2 orange shads , so put a blue shad on.....guess what...fish straight away ....then another .....dropped 2 off .... then it was time to come in....didn't want to get locked out.... 
I wish i'd fished blue from the start, I think it might have been a different story...
I gave 2 filletts to Allan for his tea, and a seagull tried to take off with mine and the carrier bag they were in after I left it on the pontoon, luckily it picked the carrier bag up upside down and the fish fell out...
An enjoyable 2 hours out.... and me and The Local Boat Builder are having fish n chips for tea tonight..
