niggle Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Went out first thing and the sea was flat with a slight swell ,so straight past our inshore mark to the carpark.Found two boats sandwiching my mark so with careful anchoring(not usually the case) I put the boat in between the two so that we were able to talk to each other Both boats as it happens we're mates,one fom the island and the other Steve( sharky) from Southampton. Had novice crew today which wasn't a problem as we weren't getting bites It was dead apart from a pout and a whiting to my crew and a single conger to me and that was it! So I'd thought I would post a "only just about caught something" For a change As Trev has already posted the run is not much fun at the moment,today I gave the last bouy on the way out a very wide berth and it wasn't to bad,but I don't think I'll be able to come and go as I please All the best to you all and hope you've all had a good Christmas Nige P.S.....Ooooooooh forgot to mention saw a dolphin today broke surface three times as it passed my boat at anchor............as it chased all the cod away Which is always a great sight Edited December 27, 2011 by niggle Quote

djredrupp Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Nige, where abouts off the needles were you? I didn't spot you! Once the blue hulled charter cat moved after the tide change, we were the most southerly boat - due south of the needles... Dan Quote
niggle Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Posted December 28, 2011 Dan I was one of three boats very close together Arvor,me and a raider about a mile from the light.So if you were fishing on the horizon i would of been a mere spec Nige Quote
