Came home just before. High tide sea was massive loads of rollers

Last cast had a massive nock picked up the rod bang reeled in just got to edge of water big fish flaped twice came unhooked and swam off

I must have had a tidler lying on as that some how managed to stay hooked

So at least I didn't blank but by god id have loved to weighed it definitely a double figure

Needles to say it took the wind out of my sails


Baits used macky mussels frozen blacks and lug

Good luck to all who are still down there
 
Yet mate will try again next time

Just a sickner lol if ad moved a little faster I could have grabbed it and I would be sat eating jumbo cod and chips but insted am having a fish finger sarnie

Good old captain birds eye :(
 
Unlucky mate
I remember a couple year back losing a good cod at horden, wasnt a double mind...but remember thinking the same - could have grabbed it but didnt and a wave came over and vanished!

Lesson learned mind, im the fastest on the beach now when it comes to losing a fish on the cusp, ive been known to dive on pollock at the mull ha

Going to try horden on Friday/sat night
 
Yet mate the lad next to me had 2 out round the 2 to 3lb mark and his mait had a 5lber out talk a bought adding salt to the wounds lol
 
Unlucky on the lost one, bet you were gutted.

What's the ground like at horden, Im thinking of trying there for a change this weekend; rotten bottoms needed?

depends where u fish mate. the blocks are ok with the odd snag, the flight can be a bit rockier. to be honest its not really a mark where its vital but u have nothing to lose if u use it ( bar the odd sinker) lol
 
Unlucky on the lost fish m8 "had it happen to a few times its a bummer but it just makes you want more am sure there's a piggy out there with your name on it
 
Thanks mate but the way its goin at the moment the only piggy I'll be getting. Is a bacon sarnie for my bait to take with me lol
 
Never lost any big ones here but I have in Norway. I always think was it a shore caught 20lber. They just bend the rod like a 5 bob spinning rod from Aldi

Horden must be due to produce a good fish, has been poor this year despite a steady stamp of cod past few weeks nothing big.

That said I am going to waste a few hours tomorrow night down horden and hope for that doubler from my dreams
