kippercave Posted August 31, 2014 Report Posted August 31, 2014 Last Friday a fishing friend had a tour round the steam ship parked at Poole Quay for the airshow.At the stern of the ship he saw a crew member fishing. He asked him what he caught and to my friends surprise he said a three and a half pound plaice.When asked what he caught it with he said a slice of wrasse.He had previously caught wrasse to use as crab bait when they were anchored off of Bournemouth pier for the airshow.I saw this man also fishing off of the ship the following day when I went past in my boat.hAS ANYONE HEARD OF A PLAICE BEING CAUGHT AT THE QUAY!!!!!!
