I decided to give one of the local marks a go on Sunday evening. I was launched and on the water for about 6.30 pm. Bit of a breeze so I dropped the anchor in about 30 ft of water to see what was about. I wasn't long in waiting, in under 1 minute I had the new 4ft rod christened with a small wrasse.

The rag worm produced about 9 wrasse over the next three hours. While having great fun catching these wrasse on the small rod

At this stage I disconected from the anchor and headed off to another reef near by in the hope of maybe a pollack or cod. Again I wasnt waiting long when a pollack made an appearance

Then the wrasse came back in doubles. I headed back towards the anchor to be pestered by dogs for the rest of the evening, oh but check this out one hungry whiting who wouldnt let go
