    had the sunderland boys out and we were drfting off the harbour in the clear water and it produced mackerel and herring along with codling and haddock of size to keep and we managed to get some Pollack from the weeds but they were only small

    the mackerel continue to push north and on a little 1hr trip drifting just off the harbour entrance we managed 40 in the space of 30 mins...water clarity is excellent and the seas remain calm....prospects look good!
    some of the mackerel went 2.5lb

    full day out but struggled to catch....lots of doggies and other small stuff with the largest codling going 3.5lb.
    there must be a northerly push of codling as we are getting them on every trip....

    again we found Pollack in the harbour entrance...biggest was 7lb with another going 5lb

    a short trip out and we caught cod(3.5lb) huss, doggies, small ling, gurnard and Pollack out of the weeds...biggest was 5lb (photo to follow)

    we have noticed that the Pollack are taking frozen sandeel and mackerel strip with confidence but only "pulling the tails" of jelly worms with few hookups
