Fishing Report by Andy Savage

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
Happy New Year……first run out of 2023 today. The original plan had been run off and have a look on a few wrecks, but the weather which faced us this morning prevented that.
We went with Plan B initially and had a fruitless look on a few inshore wrecks. Having still not put a fish aboard after almost three hours, it was time for Plan C.
Most of the boys weren’t geared up properly for Uptiding, but I knew it was realistically the only option left to get a few bites. Using a mixture of my gear and their own, I got everyone sorted and then the anchor down. Thankfully it only took a short while (I hadn’t even got the tea made) before a few Codling started to come up.
After an internal sigh of relief we spent the remainder of the day picking away. When it went quiet we had a move, just like any other Uptiding trip.
We had mainly Codling, with an odd Doggie or two. Right on last knockings, as the tide had slackened off, Dave Sharp snuck up the biggest Codling of the day at around 6lb.
Squid and Squid and Black Lug did the majority of the bites. It definitely wasn’t the day I had hoped for, but with a great group of lads on board, it made it into a nice day out. Thanks lads, much appreciated having you all on board.
