Well it was a late start this morning and a leisurely arrival at the marina just before nine. The rain just stopped as we were arriving so it was perfectly timed. I wanted to start early but Micky didn't get back from his weeks fishing in Norway until one in the morning.
Out of the piers and with the weather being so good we thought we would try a few marks we were given by a friend last season and do a bit of scouting around for the Bob White comp this weekend.
Out of the piers and searching for mackeral and the birds diving. On finding the birds diving we were soon into coalies, and loads of them, if you could hit the bottom there were loads of 2-3lb cod as well.
We left these fish alone and tried again for mackeral and bagged enough for the day.
First new mark and I hit into a fish straight away and that was the fishing for the day, cracking!
We also added a new species, a wotsit fish for micky!
The cod just kept coming and coming!
And even two at a time for me twice and Micky twice as well!
The species included cod, coalies, pollack, mackeral and ling for today. We didn't expect much as we were trying new ground out but the fishing was truly amazing again. This season has been the best ever for us so far and we aren't even half way yet!The quality of the fish is first class. The biggest today fell to Micky, both Ling and Cod. I thought with my two double hookers I was into a biggy but never mind, it has got to happen soon! Might get a sneeky session in on thursday after I replenish the 50 litres of petrtol we used today and hopefuly the comp on saturday.
