Well at last, after a few trips out marking wrecks again and messing around with the new gear it was time for the first trip out on the new boat and with a light wind, smooth sea and sun, a day with no fish would have still been good.
Set out with my mam and dad onboard today with the plan of hitting a few wrecks when we had wind v tide then when it turned head up north and do the rough ground and the plan worked.
We headed out the piers
Long story short, only one mark we stopped at did not produce a fish, seems alot of codling around the 1-3lb mark, even getting them two at time on one mark.
and again next mark
and then my earliest ever ling, a boot strap
We all had a good day and if we wanted to we could of filled the fish well with codling but decided to put everything back today even the keepers.
The wind started to get up so we headed back in and looking forward to the morning and round two, thou that wind may make it a bit harder as the drift on the rough ground was canny for long spells.
