Gummage

Sorry about the movie, I filmed it on iPad and it plays on my iPad. Can anyone tell me how change the-format

No haddies😪

eventually we were rescued by the boy’s sister’s best friend’s husband. Nobodyseemed bothered…..such is island life

Now the good bit..fearing we might be low on fuel we set off back…… yep…..we were right……we had totieoff for awhile in a beautiful sandstone rock pool IMG_0212.MOV

We were finally well into a steady stream of Mackerel from 3m to the bottom say 50 m. I tried to drop beneath them and got a codling. 40 odd mackerel were caught…..not bad size…..water was surprisingly warm..

……Nevertheless. Before very long at all, it was pb time for the boat and Jamie ….. Then Gummage was in. Not quite such an event but hey….

Got to the lighthouse on Bressay and chucked in on the drift. sea state was very good but wind and tide combined to make it a bit swift. Also tide was Ebbing which was not deemed favourite….nevertheless……

No tackle. Bags……just weights 12 oz and blingy feathers The boys were apprentices of the Molotov boat yard. They decided they wanted to take up fishing so they found some scrap aluminium and built a boat..like you do!

So Swindon Paddington , Paddington Edinburgh,meet up with lifelong friend , now captain Andy Powis and offto A.Bardeen and the overnight ferry to Lerwick to meet his twin Sons Jamie and Callum. we have a bit of rough shooting and fishing in mind.. Todaywith the windin the north was an ideal opportunity to get after Cod and Haddock. Fished deep water on the Bressay side of the channel south of Lerwick

I can relate to that. Where is this place?

Hooky, lguess your scales may still have somebody second hand value.

Yep , I do cows. If yo want to get Milking a cow off your bucket list, I’m your man.🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄!

Already got one! Don’t need any milk either thanks.

Well done, that’s just my kind of adventure. I tried for plaice off the Lincolnshire coast a couple of years back. Took the daughters Airedale terrier,who got bored and wandered off up the beach. In the end I finished up blanking but the dog came back with a Plaice. Suggest you get an Airedale! Gummage

Hi Mark, we are practically neighbours! I tow a Dory down fromMarlborough and generally launch at Baiter. Joining the club was the best thing I did. Folks have certainly been sociable and generous with their time, advice etc hope to catch up you and Skipper anon Gummage

Great to see you made it down there Jerry! Did they let you come back?

Congratulations Hooky. I figure it must be your turn to tow me home now.😉

I've found him!

The outboard Jerry?.....I was using it for bait.

went voodoo fishing yesterday.........oops I forgot my life jacket!

I've been looking forward to that report and, boy, what a report it is. Glad you all had a thrilling trip and thanks for sharing it with us!
