Popular Post Saintly Fish Posted October 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2022 Leo, @Andy135 and I had second attempt at catching cod on Tarlach Too yesterday (Saturday in case you're reading this on Monday). The first attempt turned out to be a comedy of errors which resulted in no fishing whatsoever from 2 boats! Too long a story to go into ! Any way we set off at 12pm and the plan was to fish into the dark and return at 10pm. Which we did. However, before we even left the mooring Leo decided to throw down his gauntlet by landing a nice 4.5lb bass on his first Chuck of the spinning gear. That was pretty much the highlight of the day. We caught a few fish, but the tide was sooooo big it seemed like nobody on the bottom was really feeding. A couple of small conger, a few dogs, a nice pout for Leo and not a lot for me. But as usual, I'm all about making the trip the best I possibly can for the guests. No selfishness on my boat. I did however catch the fish of the day (in weight anyhow), around 8-9lb. Andy had the biggest LSD I've ever seen, it was so big it even made his arms look short 🙄 That really was about it. We returned in the dark to the mooring just before 10pm. A good day had, but as always more fish would have been better. Thanks Andy for the good company again! 👍🏻 thejollysinker, daio web, suzook12 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Thank you for a top trip out. Sometimes it's not just about the fishing. We had some good giggles and caught a few fish - what's not to like?! PS: glad you like the Icey-Tek. They're hard to find in that size so you did well there 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
