Report:
Saturday was savage. Fishing started at 9am but by 1pm conditions were dreadful. Pollock were very scarce as were cod. However, one member managed to catch a 14lb 11 oz cod. Some conger were also caught. Several undersize gurnard and coalies showed up. Very few wrasse were caught.

On Sunday it was much the same. However, Peter Manning's boat, anchored near a pinnacle and lots of pollock were caught as well as some nice conger.

Peter Manning is an excellent skipper.
