Popular Post Dicky Posted February 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 7, 2023 Got the boat out Sunday for the first time since December for a club comp. First mark was a bank around 8 miles from launch but unfortunately the anchor kept slipping as it did with the other boats on the same mark. We upped anchor and moved closer inshore and was soon followed by the others. Here we sat lovely though fishing was very slow with just 3 thornbacks for me and 1 to my dad. As the tide eased we moved back out to the first mark and the anchor held lovely but again it was slow with just a few thornbacks to my brother and dad and a single conger. Just after the tide turned most of the other boats moved back up channel but we switched back inshore to the second mark as there had been a couple of codling caught there in the morning. Straight away my dad had a decent spotty so we popped it in a drum of water to keep alive for the weigh in. Fishing was again slow but dad came up trumps with a cracking cod of 12-6 and we had a few more thornies. At the weigh in my dads spotty went 4-13 and took first place, his cod took second and the pools so we collected a bit of $$$💰💰. Great to get out again even if it was a bit slow jonnyswamp, Tamarisk64, Malc and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
