TCQ 4th July

[Graham B]

With a couple of weather sites that are normally reliable we set off for a quick afternoon session and out of the piers for 1330. The forecast was for a slow northerly swell with the wind increasing around 8pm from the South East.
On arrival at the piers we were greeted with a snotty choppy sea from the South East as the wind had already veered six hours earlier than forecast! with the wind over tide there was no chance of any photos today!
That scuppered our plans and after four drifts on an inshore wreck producing a solitary cod and a load of whiting it was back through the piers awaiting better weather for three!
The forecast looks pants for the Bob White Memorial and I am crossing everything it changes!
