    Report on-board Mistress Linda

    Last weekend saw February temperatures rise to be able to fish in shirtsleeves and flat calm conditions allowing us to venture out to the mid channel wrecks for the 1st time this year, not knowing if they were holding fish we set of in thick fog which is always challenging navigating Poole Harbour but once we cleared the main channel the fog disappeared leaving beautiful sunny conditions. Our 1st stop produced 2 Pollack on the 1st drift and continued to average 1 per drift then on, nothing big all around the 8-9lb mark, as we moved to another wreck we were rewarded with a bonus Coalfish of 9lb 12ozs. As we had now caught our target species and with the tide due to ease soon we choose to try some new bank marks I had come across last year, once anchored we were immediately into Blonde Rays with the best going 25lb 4 ozs in 1 hr 15 mins we had landed 16 Rays. A good days fishing. On Sunday the anglers choose to stay local, our 1st mark only produced 1 Ray and a few small whiting so we moved to a gulley mid Poole Bay and were rewarded with lots of Congers to 62lb, Pollack to 10lb and our usual friends the Dogfish.
