Popular Post mike farrants Posted March 4 Popular Post Posted March 4 Nice break in the weather so we hit it! Left the marina at 7.45 heading for fresh bait first - not easy but found 3 mackerel to add to the frozen bait - although it took best part of an hour to find them! Soon headed out to our 5mile mark over mixed ground. Dropped the hook in a light tide. we both fished 2 rods each - One rod with big mackerel baits for the rays, one with small hooks and squid strips for bream & Whiting. We had Bream from the off and constant all day - they were ravenous - hitting the baits hard and fast - even shredding the big fish baits - we must have had 50 to the boat between the 2 of us - taking 6 home for dinner and neighbours! great sport on light tackle! even double shots of bream! We also had pout on the smaller baits - but no whiting. the big baits also did the trick when the bream allowed - we both had Huss, and Thornies - mine matched my PB at 14lb. I had also had congers and Tim had the only Dog of the day. felt like spring out there! Lovely stuff! Geoff, mick, Andy135 and 3 others 6 Quote
