    Report on-board Discovery

    21.10,11 JIENG WENLONGS PARTY.
    We left the marina at 7.00amto fish a mark in the Mersey with the target species of Cod and Whiting.
    We arrived at the mark with the lads eager to start fishing, but before the lines where wet they were given a demo by the skipper on how to present the bait on the hooks. After about 10 minutes the lads had all mastered it so fishing began. The lads started pulling fish in the best fish of the day was a Cod of 6lb 14oz closely followed by a 6lb 9 oz Cod with over 15 3lb+ loads of whiting, Thornback Rays to 10lb 8oz plus numerous dogfish and flatties. It was great to see the lads walking out of the marina with plastic bags on the backs with the fish in, heading back to their university halls in Manchester, talking about who was cooking that night. I would imagine there was some fishy smells on the train journey home for them. Overall a great day was had by a group of lads who had only fished twice before. Gary Flint
