Thank you Martin (AKA Gummage) for saving the day and joining me on Marlin.
Having been not fishing for 5 months this was a must do event.
We caught the 07.30 bridge and set off for a drift in the harbour entrance to see if there were any Herring about. There were none!!
My second part of the plan was to tie to a buoy in the Witch channel and fish there for a while. So we made are way off to the buoy and I could see Madness in the distance coming down Wills Cut and I had a sneaky suspicion that Madness was heading for the same buoy. This became apparent when I saw him cut across the end of Wills Cut. Unfortunately, we got there first and the look on Chris W's face was a picture π. Any after few expletives coming from the Madness crew they buggered off with their tale between their legs. ππ
We settled down and had a steady flow of small Bass coming on board, The weather started to settle in and Jerry called us to ask if we were happy to get the 13.30 bridge back in. Fishing conditions were certainly not ideal!!! We were quite happy having our cups of coffee, mince pies and Chicken Fried Rice, but we agreed and all met up in the pub for a few drinks and plenty of Banter. Despite the weather and lack of species it turned out to be a great day.
Thanks again Martin for joining me and special thanks to Jerry for organising the event and raffle prizes it was well worth taking part. π
And a Very Merry Christmas to Everyone
