Stuie Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 A lunchtime start so as to try and make the most of the calmer?? weather saw Ken catch the only fish of a day spent mainly drifting. We started on the patch and his rod hoop over as a 2lb pollock took his bottom bait. Despite several more drifts nothing else showed any interest and a brief spell at anchor - when we were joined by Alfie on Dream Drifter - produced only a few small whelks. A few drifts along the training bank - meeting up with Big Col - were also fruitless. Still, it was good to get out in the balmy sunny weather - I wish... A man I know suggested that the season is 6 weeks late for summer species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Well not a blank at least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfie Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 I will have you know that those were big Whelks and caused the rod to bend.............at least until they broke away from the sea bed!!!! So the day was a blank but it is those days that make a good days fishing so memorable. Will try again this weekend weather permitting.
