Well i have tried and failed many a time to have a good winter session on the boat from the rough ground, used all the normal baits but never had a great catch. Had days with laods of pouting and whiting with the odd tommy chucked it at Souter or St Marry's but no good cod days.

Where you thinking of trying and what ground?
