blueboatdriver Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Went out with my six year old today. Just a mile and a half or so off of Bournemouth. Thought I might get a bream or a plaice. We were using mackerel strips and I had one rod out with a live sandeel on; nothing doing just wrasse, just about enough to keep the boy interested. I had three or four really large launce in with the live eels so I thought I'd try one; bingo, within five minutes my line was screaming out; plentyof excitement , personal best bass, just over six pounds. Straight back down with the still alive launce straight into another; only two and a half pounds great fight though. Back down with another launce, by now dead. Few minutes on the bottom and hooked an eight pound undulate. George managed a bass on the way back in the haven about one and three quarter pounds, he was pleased. All in all a good couple of hours when I wasn't expecting anything much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
