Report:
Not truly a kayak report, but there was quite a bit of kayak fishing done. The two congers and the large wrasse came from the kayak, the large pollock came from the shore on the fly. Apart from that i'm not sure how many fish I got on the shore and how many I got on the kayak.
A great day out in great surroundings. My pilot friend, hadn't been fishing in a couple of years. He's already asking to organise another trip.
The first conger was 4 feet long, second was about 3ft long.
I couldn't even hazard a guess at the weight of the wrasse, all I know is it was the largest wrasse i've ever seen and the best fight i've had on the kayak thus far (very rough guess 6lb-7lb). Congers gave a strong but dull fight, unhooking the buggers is not fun in a little boat
Finished the night off in the pub. As for my pilot friend, i'm never flying with ryanair again :shock: :lol:
