    Report on-board Sea Urchin III

    After missing all of last week with poor weather conditions, it was great to have a day out yesterday. A group of mixed abilities on board from novice to very experienced. With it being a larger tide, the majority of the day was to be spent drifting the rough ground and then have a drop on a wreck around slack water.

    First stop was on the 7 mile ground, but for whatever reason, there wasn’t much coming up. A move out to the 9 mile ground heralded much better results. There were plenty of bites to be had from all sorts of fish. We took Ling Codling, Haddock, Pollock, Whiting, Pouting, and even a Scorpion Fish.

    When the Ebb Tide slackened we took the opportunity to drift a wreck and in amongst the stacks of Pouting we found a few better fish with a couple of 5lb Codling and a 6lb Ling being the biggest of the day.
    The majority of the fish fell to Hokkai’s baited with small bits of Squid, although some of the better fish came to baited muppets.

    Everyone took a few home but also put back loads of fish which were “size”. The wind fell away late morning and the remainder of the day was beautiful sunshine.

    All in all a lovely day at sea, with a great bunch of lads.
