Alderney.....it's not

[niggle]

Started the day early due to tide,left mooring at 6.20 with half hearted plan for bass.Got loads of macy so headed for the needles had several drifts but not a sniff and they weren't showing on the fish finder also our hearts weren't in it really.So after a comment from Mike we headed for the shambles And after 90 mins and 30 miles we arrived and I started to wonder why as misty and no sun but we gave it a go.Sport was slow with dogs and mackerel ,then I dropped one then another So changed my rig to a better design stinger hook And I caught one not big but amended target species......turbo.Mike caught a small weaver on a small pirk but that was that,left at 3.30 back on the ledge in an hour So dropped the hook for some wrasse,dogs and a couple of bream.

Another long 13hr day and a few miles

I must admit Nige when we spoke on the radio I thought you meant "The Shingles".....

Fair play though mate, thats one hell of an inshore round trip...

when the sun's shinning and the sea's calm anything seems possible!

 

sounds like an enjoyable trip that would have been perfect with just a few more fish.
