Mike Fox Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hi, It's an early afternoon low tide and neaps on Saturday, so am thinking about trying some deepish water for conger, huss, or blonde rays (species !!!) Haven't tried 100' deep locally since July - so am not in touch with what's where, but was thinking about finding somewhere an hour's travel or so from the chain ferry (7 miles for me with tide), and a few hours on the mark, before getting tide back home again. Was wondering about banks, reefs or holes off Ballard Down, or maybe a little further afield...if there's anything there. Any suggestions folks, or is anyone else planning to be out that vague direction fancying a buddy boat in the area? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 There were a lot of rays caught on those banks in the Open Mike Congers on the edge of the whithouse grounds or maybe southbourne rough we tend to get Huss much further out Tight lines Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Fox Posted September 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Thanks Charlie, Whitehouse Grounds might be a possibility, as we plan to be in the area. Have tried it several times on the drift, and a couple of times at anchor with little success. Have plotted the shallows and deeps, but haven't spotted anything really congery there. Might have a better look at one of the deep bits ! Shame about the huss! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Good Luck Mike I am sure that there are Huss marks about, its our ones that are further out the edges of the whitehouse grounds have been good in the past for eels Tight lines Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Mike It is bit of a trek but huss can be found just around the corner of St.Albans head near Chapmans pool, be warned if you anchor don't go in too close as it is very rocky and last time I lost the anchor!
