munterhunter Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Minced out sunday morning to west of the outer patch. Dogfish, dogfish, dogfish oh and some more dogfish managed to haul 3 up on a pennel rig and also caught some more dogfish biggest was 2lb 8oz (mine). Caught some maccy on feathers and had some gar follow bait up but none taken. Also managed a 1lb dab (mine)on worm bait, went really well for its size. Nick had a cuttlefish. Nice day but no bream unfortunately. Is great using fresh maccy bait as well. Next trip hopefully on tuesday. Also didnt lose any tackle for a change!

duncan Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 I stopped off at the Outer Patch Sunday at 1300h to see if anyone was fishing - didn't recognise any boats through the bins and ran back in to Poole........ I am clearly going to have to brush up on my 'member boat recognition skills'! Between the Solent and Poole there appeared to be 2 very distinct groups of boats - outer patch and about a mile East/SE of the end of C/ ledge. 20 odd boats on both areas. All fishing for dab and dogs no doubt............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munterhunter Posted May 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 There was also another group of boats following the pourpoises around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul J Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 porpoises? Tell us more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munterhunter Posted May 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Must of been alot of them as at some times saw 3-4 breaking the surface doing the porpoise thing we was sat at anchor @ 1/2 E-SE of outer patch and they came along they were @100 yds of the boat, tried to take pictures but that was a fruitless exercise. Think porpoises as they were darker, really messed up the fishing @1/2hr before and after they came through, we have had them closer to the boat in Feb @50ft away from boat!
