alun j. Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Just got back in from another trip to the end of the Ledge. Wanting to repeat yesterday's success, the tide, colour and temp. all seemed the same.......but the wind made it all very different! An Easterly early on, although not strong, was enough to put up a 'snotty' sea with the strong flowing flood. AS the tide eased, wind went round to South, freshened a bit and kept the snottiness going. Then, blow me down, as the ebb started, it went to SW ............so I had wind over tide all day!! At least it was easier to cope with the rock and rolling being on my own, with more room to dance about in! An endless procession of doggies munched their way through a box of squid, with the only notable exceptions being half a dozen 'jumbo' pout [i must go and weigh the biggest......possibly getting close to 3 lbs!]. No cod today......I wonder if it might have had anything to do with those two trawlers that went back and forth several times yesterday?? It was very quiet out there today.......beautiful if a bit bumpy! Alun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprinter Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Ahh damn shame Alun Hopefully you will do better next time, could be the different weather, tide, company or maybe the missing bait extras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnasher Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Alun, It may be worth targeting those jumbo pout for the comp as there easy to catch and a biggie would give you a chance on the prize table. Danny T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
