alun j. Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 We launched OotB into the fog just after 8 and felt our way out of Poole with the help of GPS. 2 miles down the Swash and a glowing ball was decernable through the gloom; this quickly brightened and , just before the mark, all cleared to leave that wintery sunshine that softens all views in romantic light. Nothing soft about the tide.....lots of lead to hold bottom....so not much sport from the whiting .....for an hour or so .........about the same time it takes a cold gas cylinder and a dodgy stove to boil a kettle and fry an egg! With a slackeneing tide, action increased [ hectic??] [ Busy ..!], good to see plenty of whiting..........better if twice the size and half as many! Lots carefully returned........a few kept for the pot! Slack water......action slowed....and the ebb didn't recover earlier action..... but great to get out on such a lovely day Early return, easy retrieve [ plenty of water still], and home in the light!! [ first for months!!]. Thanks Adam for a most enjoyable day out.... .....here comes Spring!! Alun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
