Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Well that was a great day for ducks….my webbed feet are coming along nicely!! We started in the rain, ended in the rain and for most of the day…..you guessed it; it rained!! We had a group of mixed abilities on board today and the fishing conditions were really quite challenging.
The forecasted NW wind was a fair bit stronger than advertised and gave a bit of lift first thing on the Ebb tide. First stop and first drop saw Richard Wheatley bring up 4lb 8oz Codling and we thought we’d pick a few more off. Unfortunately not, so after a quiet half hour, we relocated to a weedy gully as the tide began to ease.
This proved to be a good move as in fairly short order Simon West landed Codling of 8lb 4oz and 6lb 8oz, and Charlie Hewitt also landed one of 8lb. The fish fell to the usual Squid and Black Lug cocktails. We picked away for the remainder of the Ebb and then to be fair, the fishing became hard.
A big flood tide saw just a handful of Codling landed after dinner, but the boys persevered and remained in great spirits despite the dismal weather. I think we were all ready for home today. We got the quality again, but not quite the quantity I would have liked. But that’s why we call it fishing, not catching. Well done everyone, thanks for a good day out and see you next time.View Boats Page
