    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    Another thoroughly enjoyable day on Sea Urchin today. I get as much pleasure from seeing an experienced angler catch a new PB, as I do seeing a new angler catch their first fish.
    Some of today’s anglers were in the latter group, having never fished before at all.

    We were pleased they chose us to start their fishing journey and although the learning curve was steep, they soon got to grips with using the reels and how to keep the bait tapping the bottom. We started off with a Mackerel “Fest” to gather some bait, then set about trying to extract some Ling and Codling from the rough ground.

    I was genuinely surprised at how quickly the fish started coming, with whole Mackerel fillets fished on bait traces “doing to do” for plenty of Ling in the 3-6lb category.
    The Codling were on the smaller side today, with the best one going 4lb, but everyone had a good few fish and we ended with a few more fresh Mackerel to take home for the pan.

    If you’re interested in a starter trip, we are more than happy to help, just drop me a line to sort out a booking. The lads all did brilliantly today….hope they enjoy the fish.
