great white Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I am keeping an eye on the weather for the weekend and it currently looks fishable Sat. After a busy weekend last week, taking walls down to change Wendy's kitchen I should get the green light as long as I am back in time to take her to a social function. At the moment its just me, so I have spaces if anyone wants to join me. Probably start first light in deep water, then come back to see if any whiting have arrived. Normal routine. get in touch if you fancy it. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

great white Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) Gordon and Tom are now joining me with possibly a mate of Toms if he can get time off for good behavior. Craig I hope that the van move goes OK, there will be another time I am sure. Shame you are working Nigel, especially after a short notice MOT was sorted out on Dans car today. But the weather and expected hangover both mean its a Sat trip this time. Charlie Edited October 28, 2009 by great white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

great white Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) What a day an early start , well I thought it was until Dave phoned to say he was passing the chains as we loaded the trollies in the car park. after checking with Dave we proceeded to the wreck, but after 10 miles progress slowed so arrival was a little late. Straight to anchor and big baits, but the early bites were all pout, some deliberatly caught for bait, others just robbing the multiple squid [it is winter ] we had a couple of small eels, then repositioned for the ebb and had afew more. But they were not really feeding in the tide so we tried a few drifts Tom's mate John had a pollack on the second drift so hopes were high, but it proved to be the only one. as the tied eased we went back on the anchor instead of going inshore, but again just a few more straps. We had to finish on time as Tom and I both had commitments, so by 1500 we were having a slow run in, as we approached the banks the weather was a lot better and by the spoils we were at full cruising speed. Perhaps we should have come in a bit, for a more comfortable afternoon. But hindsight is a great thing. I had enjoyed the day,the banter and company were as usual terrific. We will try another spot on another day for Johns first big eel. Charlie Edited November 1, 2009 by great white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
