Paul J Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Went on the Radio this morning to promote the open comp then snuck out the harbour for a ride on the swells, Managed to get the anchor down for an hour and got a 4lb Bass and lost a much bigger one as it took me round a snag. Got back in quick before it turned wind against tide which would have been nasty. Better than playing that bloody quiz PJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britboard Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 I know what you mean I got a unplanned day pass (to windy to teach Flying) so shot down to Lymington early this morning, with friends and fished over towards the island just west of Yarmouth and only caught a few Doggies. One of my party was horribly ill so decided to steam down to Colwell bay to find shelter and had my best day on the Bass ever, i personally landed seven fish smallest being 3lb 2oz and the best being 7lb 4oz, all fell to whole squid on a 4/0 pennell fished tight to the bottom. My friends had two each at about 3 1/2lbs Who said it always "fishes rubbish" on an east wind. It made mine and my friends day and even though he was royally sick Also there is something big lurking in the bay as at one point my rod tried to make for the sea and i just got hold of it, only to feel the biggest set of thumps i have ever felt, promptly followed by the snap of my 50lb leader knot. It can run but it cant hide forever, i want my tackle back, its only a question of time Simon L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
