Report:well first ov all went ta tescos fri afternoon went ta fish counter we women said mackeral were fresh i reckon she was talking a load ov pollocks they were all red eyed and looked ***ked.
last time we fished here we lost a few belters or else we hooked mega clumps ov kelp that moved to the flow ov the tide that makes you think you have a conger hooked and its shaking its head in its bolthole.
andy was first ta here a ratchet but saying that he could hear a ratchet going every 5 min i told him ta stop eating lsd thats dogfish but sure enuff 2 min later he landed a 6lb strap my first run left me with a face redder then a baboons **se the eel was takeing line i flicked the spool lever over on the multipliar only for the line to go slack on inspecting the line my knot worked loose that was attached to the trace embaracing ta say the least.
after setting up again my mackeral head and guts was only in the water 10 min and then off the ratchet went heart was pounding again happy days i wasnt going ta loose this 1 she was well bulied out the noise they make wen smacking of the rocks sounds like a fist fight big heymakers.
this 1 hit 15lb and a half not bad but not the size im looking ta catch after that it went dead like always would love ta know the size ov the 1 that got my trace but i guess thats what makes us go back for more.
ill have ta get a camera
