It has been a while since the weather has allowed Spot On! to get out over the weekends.
Weather was fair to say fresh with westerly force 4/5.
The day was slow and we had to search around the wrecks finding pollock and loads of pout and eventualy some bass.
All in all a hard days work but worth while in the end after finding the fish we went searching for.
Spot On! is now taking bookings for 2013 and starting channel island trips, 3,4,5 day trips available. View Boats Page
