    Report on-board Atlantic Blue

    With a one day break in the wind, we would manage to get out for a bit of fishing. The problem today would prove to be the rain as it rained all day and really dampened the spirits.

    Nonetheless, it would be a day filled with banter meeting a bunch of lads who haven't fished on the boat for a couple of years for the first time but who would prove to be a great bunch of lads. Fishing the local marks for rays, congers, huss and other species was the plan and one which went as well as could be hoped. The fishing wouldn't prove to be tearing, but it would be steady and the guy who wanted some dogfish to take home would be happy with 5 nice ones to take away!

    Despite the weather, we would manage some congers, huss, dogfish and a small, but welcome, Blonde Ray of around 8lb. Chatting in the pub afterwards, the lads all stated that they had enjoyed their day and that they are usually luckier with the weather so are keen to book up some trips for next year including, hopefully, a trip down to fish around Lundy.

    Thanks lads for a great day despite the weather and I look forward to seeing you all again soon!
