    Report on-board Brigand

    An early start for us today in order to get the best of the weather before what looked like a stiff Southwesterly kicked in - turned out to be the right call!
    A glorious, if somewhat moody, sunrise greeted us as we headed across the shipping lanes and into deep water in search of Pollock. This time of year can be fickle with the bigger fish generally appearing later in Winter/early spring but we had a fantastic crew aboard, conditions were great and once clarity improved it was looking good.
    Fish to the boat from the off and a steady stream of very high quality fish throughout the day. The weather began to deteriorate around midday by which time we were way out to the SW so a very comfy ride in.
    Didn't quite manage to get into double figure fish, 9 1/2lb was the best of the day, very respectable for this time of year and my thanks to a wonderful crew, an absolute pleasure fishing with today guys ��
    We will be running more wrecking trips throughout Winter but ONLY when conditions are very good and at very short notice so keep an eye on here for those. This weekend Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd looking fantastic weather & tide so we are out both days split into part drifting for Pollock and part anchored for Pollock/Bream/Bass and perhaps even an early Cod. Bait can be supplied upon request
    Best wishes
