    Report on-board Luna-Sea (Merlin)

    ***Fishing Report 9/5/21***

    Today was meant to be an 8hr with 6 Anglers but due to the unfavourable forecast for the afternoon we could only put on a 5hr flood trip. Unfortunately only 3 Anglers could make the 07:45 sail so we put to sea with just the 3 on board (this meant I could get in on the action so not too bad)

    We arrived at our fruitful spot, dropped the anchor and shot the lines expecting action from the offset. Unfortunately the fishing this time had started slow putting this down to the tidal flow.

    After a slow start, the fishing accelerated nicely and we were all landing some lovely fish. One of our guys was targeting his usual Dab's using 3 hook flappers baited with Lug and had 14 lovely sized ones by the end of the session. The rest of us were fishing flowing traces baited with Squid for the more sporting fish. By the time it came to punching the weather back to Rhyl we had an array of Smooth-hound, Rays, Dogs and our 1st small Tope of the year.

    All in all a cracking steady session and a very enjoyable morning.

    We arrived back in Rhyl by 2pm with happy Anglers and a happy Skipper who got in on the fun.

    We still have spaces left from 25th May onwards so call Sarah for any enquiries on 07863774909 or visit our website for more info www.merlincharters.co.uk
