:Dwith my brother in law (mel the fat blacksmith) and my boss on board i hope for a day at least equal to that on wed 27:D

:(not a flaming hope:exclam: dirty water,flaming horrible northerly swell made the whole business uncomfortable and hard work.not forgetting a drift of 1.7 knots to put the tin hat on the whole show.
a combination of offshore ground and wrecks produced mackeral in great numbers,some nice plump coalies(£5.60 a kilo),but dem cods just didna want to play,well not in the way we are used to:exclam::exclam:
a few kind donations from the cod god meant at least all went home with a cod or three and a smiley face
best fish came in at 5.8 lbs
highlight of the day was mel getting a cod a coley and a mackarel on the one trace:)
rippers caught nowt,prawn rag and mackeral on whatever you had did their bit:exclam:

shads too took a couple of fish

many more day:exclam:s like this i may have to consider early retirement and hand over to the apprentice:)


WHERES THE WEST WIND:question:
 
ya still has fash what yee complaining about shame this flipping weather spoiling it have been waiting weeks to get out but its been too choppy yall get em next time dunc :)
 
I had a look out today , it was dire :( , I had a few coalie and a bunch of joey mackerel , first time I've caught joeys, and came back in sharpish :red:
That was a seasick swell today , I wasn't sick , but I felt the stirrings in my stomach :D . the drift was far too fast the swell was far too uncomfortable (the boat in front of me turned back at the piers when he seen the swells coming in ) and the water was far too murky.
I'll give it a couple days and have another go ;) :D
