Fair Catch - catch report 25th October

[jason]

Got out of the landings at Hartlepool about noon and went to the spoil grounds with the intention to anchor and uptide fish. Had a trial drift due to the big tides and the drift was not too bad so decided to fish downtide on the drift. We fished for 3 hours on the spoil grounds on guy jigging, one bait fishing and me and the skipper using shads. We had a dozen cod to 5lb (threw back loads of under sized cod), loads of whities, a box full of mackeral and a foot long sqid. The whities went to the guy bait fishing who had no cod. the guy jigging had 3 cod with the remainder going to the blue shads. We must have lost at least 2 dozen cod each just after the take or whilst winding up on the shads.

good day was had by all.

Nice to see people still getting out

I have not fished the boats this late on for 3 years now but with all the west winds we have had of late maybe i will.

Good one Jason.
