BigMac Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 It was chilly to say the least as we headed down the harbour and out to the ledge. I had a couple of non boat fishing friends on board as crew, but they were looking forward to it as much as I was. A couple of boats already on the grounds as we arrive (OotB and a charter) almost smack on where we had 18 on friday and 14 aboard Shogun yesterday. First drop of the pick I get it all wrong and end up 50 yards up tide of Osprey . Pull it up and go south of Adam, about a 100 yards to his port side. The rods are baited and dropped, closely followed by a few droppers of groundbait. 20 minutes later Daves rod registers the first bite of the day and his first ever brem goes 4-12 on the scales. They came steadily through the morning, with a definite lull for an hour and a half when the tide pulled hardest. The incredible thing was the average size of the fish we caught. We pulled the pick just after 2 and ended with 9 fish landed only one under 3lb. Daves one and only fish was the best of the day but I was jammy enough to break my Pb (4lb) with 3 different fish of 4-2, 4-3 and 4-8 Another ace day!!! Al Pb 4-8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam F Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Good work Al! Put us in the shade - may have to plan a 'proper' attack later in the week.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Stunning fishing Al. I think you have to get right on the mark there ( and Aquafresh certainly has a knack ). By the way, did the fishing slow up once we got there in the afternoon ? ( we had no signs of any bream ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
