Shady 08-09-12 - Anyone for doubles?

[KeithB]

Bert, Paul & myself this morning, Kyle was coming but had chronological difficulties.

We headed out about 6.30am armed with various baits with the intention repeating last weeks species hunt but with a flat calm sea and no wind the plans soon changed.

The first wreck about 3 mile out was alive with whiting, coley and mackerel with a few codling thrown in. After a while we got sick of the whiting and coley and shifted to a wreck close by, the drift was perfect for big baits so over they went. Bert was first in with a ling at 11.5lb.

Next drift Paul shouts "here we go" as his rod bent over and began bouncing, the result a PB ling of 17lb - Get in there!!!

Next drift and Paul still buzzing declares "All we need now is a monster cod" well he didn't have to wait long. Another PB of 22lb

Eventually it was my turn and I managed a 11lb ling so doubles for everyone.

We ended up with half a dozen ling and half a dozen cod.

Well done Paul on two cracking PB's

Big thanks to Bert (as ever) for a great morning afloat and well done for putting us over the fish .


Sorry the photos aren't that good Paul, hopefully yours are better quality.

Autumn after a long dull summer and just when you think it’s all over you have a day like that. Great fishing lads. Well done for the persistence and the catch.
