    Report on-board Dawn Venture

    Derek from hartlepool booked the boat for 2 days pollack fishing(17 & 18 august) and werent disappointed.
    mackerel were prolific on the headlands and as we had no ragworm,this was the preferred bait.sandeel was floatfished with no success except 3 snapoffs....artificials took some fish but freelined mackerel belly was the best method accounting for the 2 best fish (10.5lb and 7lb) and they both came from the harbour entrance...some 30 fish on day one averaging 3-4lb,day 2 slightly smaller but still as hungry!!
    chris is pictured with the 10.5lb pollack
    all pollack returned
