Guest Colin Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 fished whitehouse grounds fresh herring, sauid, cuttle, frozen peeler and lug. fished a 71-84 ft mark, nothing, moved to a 104-78 mark bank, some pout, no runs on big baits. going out tomorow any suggestions appreciated! Quote
duncan Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 sounds just like the weekend............ find a wreck over slack water and play the conga Quote
blueboatdriver Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 We tried the Dolphin bank today (Horseshoe mark I think it's called). Just two whiting and some dogs all day. Time to lift the boat out I think. Suggestion for tomorrow. Stay in bed. Quote
Bob F Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 Like the others said, Colin, it's coming to the quiet season in Feb and March. Best bet is some conger action. Adam and I intend going out on Saturday and will perch ourselves over a wreck somewhere. There are still rays to be picked up, but they will take some finding. The spoil grounds are probably as good a place as any, unless you can get out to some of the Blonde Ray banks (wherever they are!!). BF Quote
duncan Posted February 1, 2005 Report Posted February 1, 2005 mine came out Monday after such a depressing Sunday........ just started sorting out tackle to be serviced - can't believe I have 7 penn reels! been locked into the same 3 rod/reel setups since November; in fact none of them have even been apart right down to the link swivel below the boom since then!

Guest colin Posted February 2, 2005 Report Posted February 2, 2005 IF Flat enough Either going out to a wreck found co-ordinates on a diving web site and said "dozens of large congers" or floundering in harbour. If going to wreck will drift a couple of times to see if pollack about and then anchor to fish into the wreck Quote
Guest colin Posted February 2, 2005 Report Posted February 2, 2005 Went floundering, blanked, tried holes bay, oyster bank and baiter nothing anywhere. Quote
great white Posted February 3, 2005 Report Posted February 3, 2005 Hi Colin, I am afraid that is why so many boats are out at this time of the year Fish are hard to find. As we discussed on Monday the Rays and Conger are probably the best target species, but some good flounders were recorded last Feb. Better luck on your next trip, Charlie Quote
Guest Colin Posted February 4, 2005 Report Posted February 4, 2005 Nick is out today to see if can find any flounders hes going to try up the mere, heard a couple of reports of some early bream in nets in the bay! Seems you have to go out along way to wrecks for pollack and ling or find some local conger if you are to have much sport. Quote
