We are hopefully having the day off tomorrow.

 

Probably try for some mackerel if we get out.

Me and my mate will be out with nigel on Lady V, under 10.30 bridge.

I want to go out, would anyone want to come with me or any space on someone’s boat?

Sorted, family fishing emergency has popped up, so Deckhand Jenny has closed the shop tomorrow! See you out there 🎣

Unfortunately I had today off and had a short trip out (ended up on my own) and moved all my work to tomorrow. Good luck getting out (one way or another).

You may be skipper but I expect like all blokes you'll be the one following orders.  🤣

Following us is a great idea if you want a quiet, peaceful day out.

We're great at finding the places with no fish.  👍

Don`t tell anyone where the secret no fish marks are.

Dont worry Mick I have them all in my plotter

Nigel took us to three of them today.

[Greg]

Likewise Mick

Tried for a Mackerel for two hours and then gave up!!!

Carol was with me and also tried to fish for some. That is twice we have been out with no Mackerel.

She could not believe how bad it has got as when she used to come out when Brad was younger, we were always sure to get some Mackerel for bait.

Very sad.

I came up with a plan.

Catch a Bass & cut it up for Mackerel Bait.

 

Martin & Tony didn't think it was a good idea.   🤣

So we followed through with the plan to fish some offshore banks.  Out through the 7:30 bridge lift We visited 3 in total with very little return.

 

1st mark should have produced. We really did try hard but no rays, bass or anything much we did however managed  some Mackerel, small congers, loads of Scad and a solitary dogfish.  We decided on a move to the 6 mile bank.  

that was totally barren so off to the South West Banks.  Here we had a few more mackerel, loads more scad, one solitary Bream and a nice sized (but not huge) Bass.  We did get bit off a few times which we guessed were tope.

A really lovely day to be on the water with good mates plus no dramas 

 

Almost perfek
