north star 20th june

[lingking]

after a personal disaster left bait in house

scrounged a couple of squid of steve the crewman-as it turned out never needed them

so!!!!, half a dozen rods on boat,and orf we went first stop for mackeral,and plenty of them,and of decent size!!!!

then a bit of a longer travel to the chosen ground,where the "north star was going to shine in the east"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

theres a big lad goes out fishing on jims boat(soap dodger) on here all he uses is "dusty bin" rippers worked hard!

well i thought if he can i can im only 40year older than him

10 mins of hard graft and yip a fish,and so it went on for the rest of the day for me,fish between 3lb and 9lb-mainly 4/5 though,fish lost fish put back too.

other rods didnt go without either,probably averaging a dozen fish each,and as many mackarel as you could wish for.

by the end of the day a few had changed tactics to rippers too,also shads accounted for a few fish in the clear water

thanks to phil for collecting in my winnings

if carlsberg did fishing days this would be one of them cheers jim for the trip
