great white Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Great day to be out on the boat again. Except for the early morning fog. We had constant fish all day, but no COD. Well done to all of the Members that either caught Cod and won prizes or got one on their boats. Charlie Quote
Ark Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Well as nig said it was a lovely day to be afloat, got a bit lost going down the harbour in the thick fog. we had a slow start with only one LSD in the first hour. Then the tide was slack and the fish went mad 2 cod the big one to mick 18.9 then the grandson Jacob said I got a bite, the rod was in half I thought wow big cod after A big fight and almost pulling in the 7year old I had to help him and up she popped a cracking 25 lb plus blonde ray,that was a great moment for Jacob and me. Mick had another ray10 lb we had lots of good whiting. It was worth the drive down the night before and sleeping on the boat albeit freezing, it was A very good day had by all I will send a pic of me holding fish as Jacob couldn't lift it,if I could send it to someone by email as I can't load the picture Kev Quote

great white Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 Kev you could have let Jacob stand by HIS FISH in the photo mate Get it entered into the Wessex area junior fish of the month, and send details to the mags. Hopefully he will get a few goodies Quote
Jim Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 Beaten by a 7 year old lad. My 10 pounder ain't bad but your grandson whupped my ass Kev. Give him an extra slice of cake. Jim Quote
Jim Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 On the subject of FISH - - - - I bought a filleting glove and I'm very impressed with it. It gives good grip of the slippery fish and the safety of helping to protect against slicing my hand. Just one question - - - - - how do you clean them ? Kam, you've used them for a while now ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Jim Quote
Rob Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 Jim, I wash mine (stainless mesh type) in hot water and washing up liquid! Rob Quote
Jim Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 Yeah I did that Rob, but I just couldn't seem to get rid of the fishy smell although now it's dry it seems O.K. I just wondered if there was a " secret recipe " for glove washing. Cheers. Jim Quote
Ian.Jones Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 I use a filleting glove a lot, particularly when preparing fish on a rocking boat. I squirt washing up liquid over it while still on my hand, give a good rub to work the soap in then as good a rinse as possible. I then put it over a rod holder and let the sun, wind and rain do it's work while I am far enough away not to smell it. Always seems ok on return, if a bit stiff. No one has ever nicked it...... Word of warning. Don't be tempted to sneak it into the family wash, or everyone will smell like a bait shop for a while. Ian Quote
