    Report on-board Skylark

    We had a fantastic start to the day, nice settled weather.

    we decided to target cod and Pollock, but the cod that were been caught were only a couple of pound where the Pollock were all over 5lb.

    so we quickly changed tactics to targeting Pollock with lures. in a few hours we had a good amount of Pollock about 30 in total then the weather deteriorated and the area we were fishing became unfishable so we decided to have a go on the sand and shale hiding from the winds.

    this was defiantly the right move as we had been drifting 10 minutes and suddenly started to get good bends in the rods, fist fish wasn't a massive thorn back ray just about 41/2 lb. great fun on the light gear we were using to target the Pollock.

    by the end of the trip we had 11 Thornback rays landed then we had the uncomfortable hour steam back over the grounds we couldn't fish due to the strong Northerly wind.
