Malc Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Hi, recently spotted this site when looking for answers so I lurked for a few days and now I have a moment, joined. I fish mainly from a kayak, mostly lures, around the NE of England and latterly Fife and Angus. I am also blessed by having friends who have a rather nice boat and I get to join them for trips out from the NE and we go over to compete in the MOGSAF tope festival. Looking forward to learning more and contributing! GPSguru and jonnyswamp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Hi Malc, welcome to the site. I understand you have some good fishing ground up your way. What do you target? As Jon says, we love a good boat pic or three, so please do tell us about your yak set up on the Show Us Yer Boat thread (https://www.offshoreoutlaws.co.uk/forum/13-show-us-yer-boat/). You mentioned you found us while searching for answers - what was the question you had in mind? Happy to help if we can. 👍 Malc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know where to stick a pot noodle 😂 1 hour ago, Andy135 said: What do you target? Cod and Pollock mainly but that's just because I have recently moved here from central Scotland. Had a mid to small haddock on my friends boat just a mile or so off in 40-50ft which was a great surprise, plus I have been getting a few pout on the yak as well which would have been a surprise 45 years ago when I was a kid living here but are fairly common place now. Hope to target flats, plaice mainly but hope to get a turbo among them, and bass as well as they aren't as rare as they once were. 1 hour ago, Andy135 said: What was the question you had in mind? Just a general question about boat rigs for bait fishing as I rarely fish with the usual baits on the bottom. Will post some pics of the rig at some point but in the meantime...

Well done on the haddock. 👍 Pout can be a pest for us on the south coast but a decent sized one makes good eating - they are my son's favourite in batter with chips and beans. As for rigs, my all-round rig is the simple running leger, with either a single hook for small baits or a pennell for bigger baits. I use a variation on this theme for plaice (lots of bling and small hooks) to conger and cod (pennelled big hooks with 80-100lb traces). Hope this helps 👍.
