Out Today Saturday 5.00am ..... which weatherman said it would be flat calm !!! it was heaving till 10.30am
Did the usual inshore wrecks, met up with the lads and had our usual 5.30am bottle LOL
quite a few fish around, caught my first before even getting to the bottom (not mackerel , they were too easy and dont count) put on a trace of small hook flashers for mackerel bait but struck into a 6lb ling INSTANTLY LOL which had wrapped itself in the trace. (maybe the mackerel got their own back and wrapped it up for me)
All in all a good day with loads of variety ling, cod, coalie, whiting, wrasse, mackerel.
only problem of the day was the moment the engine decided not to respond to the starter seems the solenoid gave up the ghost, but managed to engage starter with solenoid as mate pushed the contacs together to turn the engine over .... phew nearly called for help from Shady.... new part on order will be sorted for next week.
