We managed to sneak a 6 hour trip in yesterday between bouts of bad weather,
We got off to a slow start only taking a handful of fish from each of our first 3 marks, mark number 4 produced well and our last throwing out some nice fish,
We finished our trip with around 60 codlings with throw backs on top of that, the best angler managing a very good bag of 20 codlings himself.
Best baits remain to be black lug, unwashed squid and cart. All available on request if required.
If you fancy a day with us the next gap in the weather is this coming sunday and monday trip prices are £5 per hour per person, hire tackle and bait extra.

Another good day on the Mistress with Rich, set off on a lovely morning from port first stop mackeral for bait, then up the coast to the first mark a cuople of fish taken, cod and ling, on to the next mark.
We covered wrecks and rough ground for quite a busy day every body getting fish on shads , hokkias and bait and I got my usual bleggs (pouting) (one of these days I'll get the record) Rich as usual netting fish and giving advice everyone went home with plenty of fish. -
