Early start left harbour 07.30 first stop mackerel,then off to the wrecks very slow going with just the odd fish coming in, this was the same on all the wrecks we visited odd fish here and there, fish between 3 and 4 pound we eventually called it a day on the wrecks as the drift was far to fast. We moved back in shore on to the hard ground where the fishing picked up all in all we had between 30 and 40 fish the heaviest a ling of just over 10 pound caught on a twin tail lead head the rest was caught on day lites and shads. Once again a big thanks to Jeff for his hard work trying to find the fish and his able crewman Sconner for keeping us amused.

, 30-40 fish is a good result
, 30-40 fish is a good result 30 to 40 fish on a good day is good ,but at the minute 30 to 40 fish is great,Iv'e been down to marina today and water has cleared up loads,its looking good for the weekend if weather holds out,But it is a bank holiday so don't build ya hopes up ,as we all know bank holiday weather is not the same as any other weekend..lol..
