Popular Post suzook12 Posted April 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2022 Sooo, after a 4 hour drive down to Hamble on the Thursday evening, a fish and chip supper, me and the lad settles in to the Royal Southern Yacht Club. 6am alarm, and up and about and down to the marina to meet up with Neil, Leo at Tarlach Too. Very little breeze and clear skies,lots of mullet in the harbour the day looked promising, and deliver it did. Our first mark, we caught at the end of the ebb, trying for bream. No bream showed, but my lad had a lovely 8lb smoothound for his birthday. We moved to the next mark and the tide started running. Dog fish central (sorry @Andy135 , forgot to ask permission !!!) That was pretty much how it looked to pan out, until Leo caught a cracking fish. Will let Neil fill in the details of that. At the death started getting some bites that were possibly bream, but by then, had hooks on too big for bream. The day passed all too quickly, great company, great boat and a beautiful day on a cracking location. Leo skippered us back in and did a fine job to boot and another day where the kids outfished the adults was had. Neil, thanks soo much for today, Mikey has had a birthday to remember with a personal best too 👍 GPSguru, thejollysinker, jonnyswamp and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintly Fish Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Glad you enjoyed your day steve, it was a long time coming. Great that Mikey enjoyed his birthday and we managed to get him on a decent fish. Next time the adults must try harder (🤔). Here are a few shots from the day.
