Tough fishing lads but at least ye got to see some wildlife ,have had some crap sessions lately myself even managed to get my car bogged took over an hour to get it out & getting no fish for the past five sessions but hopefully this speel of good weather will bring the Wrasse & big Pollock back to the rocks, will be giving them a shot in the next few days!

Sorry looking or not,,,that codling saved the blank Noel ,,,,,,,,,,,,was he hooked with the rig that John lost??

jeese noel i thought that was one of your "safe bet" marks. looks like some places are still waiting to switch on you'll put it all behind you with one good session on the open seas i'll have to keep an eye out in the boat angling reports section

hard luck guys, was tempted to go there myself the same evening, fortunately a friend called to invite me out for a trip in his new lakeboat, we christened it well with 2 lovely brownies, better than nothing I suppose
