Well done for getting a few fish - last night was not a nice night to be out.
But at least you made the effort to get out. I have had just one session this month due to the bad weather - and that only lasted 20 minutes before I gave up because of gale force wind, horizontal rain and a mass of weed on what had been forecast to be a dry relatively calm night!!!!!!!!
Cod season Winter 2013/14: 117 cod (best fish: 6.5 lbs)

You did well to get anything in those conditions, the low numbers of reports on here at the moment is a good reflection of how bad the weather and fishing is just now.

how did I miss this report john :) I'm seeing it for the first time, it was good to get out, that 3B rockling no matter how small it was saved me from blanking but you had a decent night, conditions were shocking I still have a hearty cough to proof it. Conditions are better this weekend so fingers crossed.
