Report on-board Bessie Vee
At the opening of our season on the 2nd April, we were able to catch plenty of mackerel for bait for the day. We had a very successful day fishing a couple of small wrecks around 14 miles from the coast, drifting for ling using baited cod feathers. Tides were too strong for anchoring on wrecks. The biggest ling were up to 20lb, and Marcin's group had over 20 ling to take home with them.
On the 3rd April, with a different group of more experienced anglers, we went off 25 miles to another small wreck where we tried the same, drifting for ling with cod feathers. Again, we had much success, with plenty of ling - the top angler landing eight, ranging from 8 - 18lb; but the best of the day went to Graham, with his 35lb ling - showing that this is the ideal time of year to catch big ling, as it was carrying 8lb roe.
