We were with joe on the Brazen Hussy yesterday (sunday) had a great day with 20 tope from 2lb to 30 lb. A few good bull huss one good ray(10lb). We would have done better if we had fresh mackerel, but in all it was a good day.

Hard to beleive that in late july that beteween 9 anglers that not one mackerell was cought.
