    Report on-board PLAN B

    What a week of fishing.. Last Sunday saw us down at the Knock John tower doing a bit of hound bashing and my crew managed to loose the best hound any of us had ever seen.. To be fair I was netting a good bass at the time and the net could not be in two places at once.. believe it or not his hook snapped - the fish was a 25-30lb hound.. He is still crying about it..
    Wednesday we tried again and caught in the region of 200 mackerel about 50 hounds up to 9lb and not a single bass and today Sunday 3rd July we hit the jackpot..
    Started with a bass of around 7lb followed by dozens of hounds and the odd dog, more bass to 7lb were taken and then we spotted gulls working along a distant bank.. a variety of lures, baits and feathers resulted in well over 100 bass.
