Sinbad Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 Planned to go out today for the elusive whiting, as weekend fully booked with non-fish related activities - Only did you see the weather forecast - yipes F7 no thanks ! Quick re-think, and spent the day up at Wareham and all points south including Rockley, chasing the even more elusive flounders..... The Only achievement of the day, was the safe re-cycling of a tray of rag, with absolutely no fish hurt in the making of this posting. Actually, we had more than 100 of those alternative green back flatties (with claws) over the side. Water was 8 degrees C ! However nothing more than a F5 in the harbour, no rain, and some good long spells of sunshine, and we found some flat water - so all in all a better than expected day. Was also quite nice not to come back smelling of fish, and recieve the evil eye for 'pongin out the fridge' (although we all know fresh fish doesnt smell fishy). Yes, I know, I have lost the plot Paul Quote
alun j. Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 Never mind Paul, You often save your best days catching......for this crew member! Perhaps you moved about too much...... find a good spot and bring the flatties to you. Quick change of plan with FPO............ am now out tomorrow, so will post if whiting are still about....... ....... need something for dinner guests; suspect squid will be the starter !! Tight lines, Alun. Quote
