    Report on-board Queensferry

    Monday 11th June. A scheduled 7 hour trip turned into 8.5 hours thanks to Neil keeping us catching some lovely cod.
    Fished the southern land rock in almost perfect conditions with very light winds and a smallish tide. The catch consisted of almost all cod in the 3 to 7lb range and in excess of 70 keepers to the boat with no end of smaller fish returned.
    The fish came to both bait and lures, fresh worms and mussel took a lot of fish but the stand out bait was undoubtedly a large squid bait which although didn't take the numbers of fish as the worms it certainly produced the bigger stamp.
    Best lures were a sandeel type of shad with all colours seemingly effective.
    All in all a fantastic enjoyable day with plenty of top quality fillets for the freezer.
