Report on-board Lillie May
REPORT FOR BBCSSAC TRIP 20TH SEPTEMBER 2021:
Bait ordered in advance from Seaton Tackle Shop at £5 per quarter for Rag Worm. Worm in excellent condition dug from Poole with farmed worm.
All anglers arrived at Beer in good time, met by parking attendant and paid the £5 all day fee and boarded boat and set off by 0800hrs in glorious sunshine, mist and light Northerly winds. Stopped once on way to fishing mark to feather for mackerel with no fish caught... decided to cut the feathering short to get to the reef.
Fishing was patchy to start with but with decent sized Black Bream coming to the boat. Dave had the best Black Bream early on with a 2lb 10oz fish.
Lots of small bites but not the ‘plague’ of scad and dogfish we had last year. Fishing down to Low Tide at 11:49 produced a constant fish count with good sized Black Bream and sizeable Mackerel.
Several Conger Eels were brought to the side of the boat for release estimated at 5 to 7lb.
The highlight of the day was a new Club Record for Guy, a Red Mullet at 1lb 9oz, 0.7087kg, it is a 104% record for the Angling Trust Area C Boat Specimen Weight which is 0.68kg.
As the tide picked up after midday the bites increased with in size Black Bream coming to the boat in a steady pattern.
Paul gutted everyone’s catch before heading back in shore. An excellent day’s fishing, perfect weather, great company and fish for the pot.
David’s Black Bream was 74.9% specimen weight. Guy landed a good sized gull which after a good sized peck was released.
As the Boat Competition for 2021 has been postponed due to the impact of COVID-19 no total weights have been recorded.
