Good season ahead !!! Catch report Thursday 21 April

[Wasabi]

After we had a glorious and somewhat successful day 2 weeks ago (see my last catch report), the obligatory period of bad weather, huge tides, busy work...etc followed, so we rubbed our eyes when we saw a good weather forecast coming up for Thursday with a decent tide and no swell....lets go !!\\

GLORIOUS WEATHER




...and yes, its again Allans JFK TWO in the background!!




The tide was awkward in most of the morning too fast for our liking, but hey...

First wreck and we had nice cod coming up


On the second wreck, Pete lifted the obligatory nice Pollock...


We had steady fish throughout the morning, mainly cod, but also ling and pollack

and of course a hello from Allan on JFK2


On one wreck I had two fish bitten off half way up by a big beast...since my line was clear bitten off and it was half way up, I suspect it was more likely by a shark than by a seal...but I guess we will never find out. Quite a feeling to have a big animal pulling line of my reel !!!

Good day out, yet again....and I believe we have a nice early summer ahead

I guess we had 15 fish altogether
Heaviest cod and pollack 8-9lb

nice one norbet
was a lovely day out again, reasonable fishing, a few nice fish and a handful of nice Pollack as well.
nice to see you out there,
did see a couple of big seals on a couple of those wrecks.
but would be nice to think it could of been a shark
seen a lot of feed marks and jelly fish, last thing we need is this northerly blast. stirring it up again

Wish you luck with that!!!!

I thought 2015 was the windiest year ever

....but 2016 has started even worse and it is not giving in.

it is actually very awkward. There seem to be fish en masse down there, but we just cannot get out there to catch them.

wind, swell, monster tide, dirty water, algae bloom...one leads to the other.

crazy
