too far for ya to gan with ya red smock alan

for fish like that I might just hop on the first plane with the red smock, probably forget the camera, I am shaking after reading much of the report that will be psoted later, you will not belive it with another two cod over 40lb.

I've just looked back at my pics and the 20lbers look small now.......dream fishing........no.......i never even dreamed i'd see fish THAT BIG!

amazing not sure if this has been asked but what bait do you use for these monsters.

wonder how long fish of this quality lasts up there hopefully forever all i would say get there now while the fish is there.

i can remember how good the scottish sea lochs were ie rhu narrows first time walking to the mark bob gledhills m8 harry guy i think that was his name just put a 17lb speckled cod on the beach . then the were holy loch/lock goil/loch long etc all but just memories now very few fish there now.

1/2 a fillet max is all that we used for these monsters, full report shouldnt be too long

 

[greggthe1]

Small chunks of bluey.......as simple as that

Looks like you all had a trip of a lifetime, (red letter trip) i knew the boat fishing could produce monsters but i had my doubts about the shorefishing just shows how wrong you can be.
Looks like this post has just put Norway on the map for shore anglers.

Well done lads

I,m off to Iceland end of April and if its half as good as some of the fish you lot have caught then i will be pleased.
