    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    After another few days off with poor weather, we were back out again today on a Spring tide with a great group of lads.

    Due to the size of the tide, we fished the majority of the day on rough ground and dropped on a couple of wrecks when the tide eased at slack water. We caught the last hour or so of the flood tide in the morning, and picked up a few Codling and Whiting. On the run into slack water we moved to a wreck and had some better sized fish to 4lb, but that only lasted until we lost the tide.

    Slack water was very unproductive, but at the first signs of the flood getting away, the bites started again. The Ling came on the feed and we picked away nicely with Codling and Ling. Nigel Hughes managed the biggest Ling of the day at 9lb 8oz and Richard Hurst had the biggest Codling at 5lb 4oz.

    The sun really broke through in the afternoon and conditions were glorious. We kept on picking a few up here and there for the remainder of the day. Most fish came to Hokkai’s baited with squid on the ground. But Shads and muppets on squid bait traces featured well on the wrecks.

    Not exceptional fishing, but definitely steady away. Well done lads on some good angling.
