    Report on-board Sweet William

    It was a tale of two halves this weekend.
    Saturday was hard going from the start; a sizeable swell, overcast and tough fishing with three noteworthy Codling keepers, a few Coalies and a single Pouting.
    Sunday was a completely different story; all of the party members were accomplished anglers and non of them wanted to fish the ground, so we headed straight out for a full day's wrecking. The first wreck produced a good number of Pollock, and as the day progressed a non stop stream of Codling came aboard up to 8 lb. During one of the notable flurries up to 9 rods went off one drift simultaneously! Mark also managed to find a strap Ling at one point which was unexpected.
    It was a great start to the season and hopefully a whistle whetter for future trips!
