mackerel where well none existent to say the least tried about 7 spots and only 6 mackies and a few whiting. anchored up on our mark about 11-30, serious low on any hook of an adequate size we found 1 each, some rusty some blunt but anywho we continued.dennis struck first with a dog, and i followed, then dennis hit a small huss which promptly let go of his bait when it broke the surface, paul followed suit with his first huss of the year, about 7 lbs or so, i in the meanwhile hooked a rope of sorts, line gone, i had to make a new trace, only 4/0s where found so i focused on huss. dennis hooked a monster huss, about 12-14lbs, which took 10 minutes to unhook, paul hit a smaller one this time. i was only catching dogs, so decided to put a half mackerel on, within seconds it got hit by a tope, about 10 minutes later i had a 30-35lb male tope aboard, a new pb for me, i was chuffed, managed two doggie sized huss to boot, not bad going,, a nice way to christen my new tdx 12-30,the lads will post the pics
