Duration: 0800-2000
Tide: suitably benign
Weather: early stage hypothermia
Bait: fresh herring
Rigs: shads, flowing traces, muppets
Results: herring, lots of octopus, whiting, hake, ling and pollack
Report: We caught lots of herring close to the rocks for fresh bait, apparently,
they were mixed 50/50 with mackerel on the saturday.
We headed quite a long way out to marks not usually fished by anglers.
Fionn caught a 7lb hake, there is a proliferation of octopi, must be the mild winters caused
by global warming. On the last wreck we fished there were plenty of ling, and i managed to
catch a specimen pollack 14lb 12oz on an orange shad
