What a day,not a single bite 124 anglers 14 cod weighed in.

We had it all rough first thing(good call Rob )fog so thick when we come in the skipper of Random Harvest went round in three circles on way back in until we spotted a potter that obviously knew his way home so he followed him...........then we come across another charter that apparently was also going around in circles and he joined the convoy(let's all do the conga)

I have to admit that I felt yuk all day,I didn't ground bait,it would of been easier if I had a bite but that's fishing!

Total catch on our boat today was 1 large edible crab,1 pout and 2 small whiting,a lot of boats were the same ,I blame the sprats that are in

we were out today .... very very foggy through the harbour made for very slow progress. Once we got to the harbour entrance we tied up to a buoy to wait for the fog to lift.

 

We didnt have to wait long but the sea was pretty grotty out of the harbour with a fair swell making our progress almost as slow as the fog had done. We followed a couple of private boats out to our mark (although one of them turned back towards the harbour about a mile out).

 

Both of us on the boat felt pretty grim at times but we managed to keep our breakfasts down. The swell eased after a few hours and by mid day you would never have known it was ther same day.

 

I managed a doggie and a couple of pout, my mate a single pout.

 

We started the return trip at 3.15 and by the time we were half way into the harbour the fog had rolled back in and we were down to a walking pace again.

 

Pretty hard days fishing but still great to be out and away from Christmas TV.

We had a similar day to others.slowwwwww dogfish all day long but nothing else

 

Fog bound going out until the end of the swash then the same coming back especially at Rockley end absolute pea souper, can't wait to get my radar and wide screen plotter fitted

Well done you lot for going out !!

 

I must admit it sounds a bummer as far as the weather was concerned and even worse for the fishing !! Even the whiting were not playing ! where have they gone?

 

Anyone know what area the cod were caught....ie Wight, ledge, bay or OH spoils??

and was fishing that slow everywhere else??

we were at the needles-ish area, and didnt see the two charter boats either side of us catch anything....

 

and it sounds the same elsewhere!

problem is - its a bank holiday, so the fish are still at home watching xmas tv!
