Bass&Chips Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Had a first go for the hounds yesterday and despite the freezing conditions wasn't disappointed. Managed over 30 fish mainly small 4-6lbers but with a few 8's and the best 12lb. Great bit of sport. Andy135, JonC and Geoff 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 That's a busy session. Well done. 👍 Any pics? Guessing peeler did the business for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintly Fish Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Nice one @Bass&Chips. The season seems to have started a bit quicker in your area than ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass&Chips Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Didn't bother with photos of fish as no great shakes. Unhooked most in the water as there's only so much rock eel you can eat. Catch also included many undersized bass, a flounder and a five bearded rockling (not seen one of them before on the boat) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass&Chips Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 And yes peeler and soft crab got the hounds. Lug the bass and rag fished very poorly in comparison. Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonC Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 There were loads of boats fishing yesterday around the clacton wind farm, we had a couple of hours near the East barrow but that was a dog fest. we saw a porpoise though which is always nice.

Bass&Chips Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Can't say we avoided the dogs completely but they weren't a problem. Think I only had 2 all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
