    Report on-board Discovery

    Sunday 9th September - The Voith lads

    We locked out of the marina and headed up the river with the intentions to trying different marks to yesterdays trip. We got to the first mark and decided that it was too rough to fish, so headed inshore to fish another mark for a few hours and see how the weather settled as the day progressed. We got the guys fishing on the first mark and as with yesterday they were into mackeral straight away as well as a sprat. Graham who was fishing at the front was pulling in pouting and poor cod 3 at a time, with the other guys bringing in doggies and various other species. Tommy was the first of the day to land a Huss at around 6lb. With the pool being heaviest fish Tommy was giving the rest of the guys banter about him being the winner already, until one of the guys on the back had hooked into a lovely bullhuss, but before anyone could get the net fast enough it snapped the line as he was only on a scratching rig and swam off on the surface. I estimate it was around 14lb.
    With the wind easing we decided to try and head back offshore, so lines were brought in and off we went. We got to the mark and the guys began fishing. Again plenty of Pouting, Whiting and Poor Cod. We moved to another 3 marks further offshore with the same results.
