    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    Sorry boys, I got that completely wrong…….

    Today looked like being a great day for a run off to a few wrecks around the 20 mile range. With light winds and the recent Spring Tides meaning the wrecks had received little pressure; I hoped they had ample time to fill up with plenty of plump Codling.

    Unfortunately this wasn’t the case. We arrived just as the flood tide started to get away and I thought the drift was bang on for a few bites. A good few drifts later we moved on with only a handful of small Codling to show for our efforts. Frustratingly, we got a similar result from the next wreck and even less from the third! I must point out that it was no fault of the anglers. We had some very experienced boys on today. It just seemed that they weren’t feeding.

    I decided we should run back inside and try to salvage something from the day. Arriving at our first wreck on slack, we had a couple of fish first drift, which really lifted morale. And then just as the Ebb started to move, we had a good few decent fish. 3-4 rods playing fish each drift. Dave Guest taking the biggest Codling of the day at 8lb 8oz. The feeding window wasn’t huge, but at least we got a few.

    Credit to everyone who came for the trip today. No heads dropped, everyone just kept at it. What a great bunch of boys. It was far from a productive day, but the boys on board were brilliant company.
