#1 Post by twinkle »

People:just me

Duration:6 hrs

Tide:low to high

Weather:el scorchio

Bait:sardine mackeral

Rigs:lost count

Results:3 dogs 2 mackeral

Report:at long last the wind let us back out headed first to reids for some squid dident have any but seen some fresh
sardines il have them and had some macks from the freezer with me went out about 3 miles untill i reached 120 ft on the fishfinder put 2 rods out 1 with macks other with sardine there was still a good swell at 11.30 out there so wasent so comfortable on my own .first fish taken on sardine doggie rebaited .same again another dog re baited bang another dog
swell got worse so decide to move back in a bit headed to stack at irelands eye drifted right down till i could see the tides meeting at the point towards the bailey decided to try around the point and then drifted down and beyond the bailey water
was very murky onthe drift all the way down tried severel different rigs bottom hook baited not a sausage and severel other boats all had the same to say no fish was toying with the idea of going back out to the first mark as it was alot calmer now but decided to try for a few pollock over at the island drifted over the spot 4 times no takes to rub salt in the wound a bullseal pops his head up with a pollock about 6/7lb in his mouth and started tossing it up in the air like he was goading me he nearly got his comupence when a gannet tryed to pick it up when he tossed it up moved around the front
of the island and got 2 single macks in twelve foot of water i think friday might be better water should have settled by then
but hell its great to be out again by the way willy if your reading this well pleased with the reels they are brill thanks
