Burnham On Sea 23/6

[Dicky]

Got out Sunday for a club comp. Best day weather wise for us this year, absolutely flat calm. Started off local looking for a bass but just small thornbacks and dogs. A move down just below Watchet produced even more dogs, thornbacks and some straps but we did find half a dozen hounds or so. Too many dogs here for my liking and the hounds were small so at slack we shot back up channel to a piece of coral. More of the same but a few more hounds and a bigger average size so was a good move. We spent the last hour failing to find a bass again but overall a great day out

Some nice looking hounds there mate. What depth were you in? When @Andy135 and I were out last week we were in just 3m depth, and he'll do those hounds go like stink in shallow waters.

One mark was around 9 metres and the second one was under 3 meters at low water when we arrived. I hooked a decent hound there and it was screaming off across the surface just after setting the hook lol.

Nice sesh dicky, we went from Cardiff over to Foreland, then on down to Copperas rock trying a few reef/rock marks as we went

All we had to show for our efforts was one Bass off Foreland (56cm) and a Pollock of around the same size off Copperas 

Shit loads of Mackerel around though

Did think about it, but the amount of boats heading down that way on the morning meant it would've been like the M25 at rush hour

Had the Foreland trip planned for a couple of weeks

In hindsight, Nash would've probably been more productive
