Missy Moo, Bangor

#1 Post by monkey »

People: 6 from my work

Duration:6.00 p.m to 10.00 p.m.

Tide:no idea

Weather: fantastic

Bait:mackerel

Rigs:feathers

Results:100+ mackerell


Report:This was only the second ever boat fishing trip for all of us, out of Bangor on the Missy Moo. Managed to pick some cracking weather again. We headed towards the Copeland islands in the hope of some reasonable pollock. At every stop we pulled in plenty of mackerell. We also got a few herring, and one or two small codling,coalfish and pollock.
Nothing of any size except some of the mackerell which were huge.
