Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
A group of mates booked the boat today for an uptiding trip. Having had a bit of a stir up yesterday, we were unsure what would await us today.

We had a late start to let the wind and lift fall away a bit and then the lads got stuck in. Quite a few of them were more geared up for wrecking and rough ground fishing; using Hokkai’s etc. which resulted in more Pouting being caught than Cod initially.
A couple of lads then took the advice I offered and changed over to my rigs, and first cast one of them landed a 7lb 4oz Codling….result! After that most people switched over to uptiding rigs which saw a fair few Codling in the 2-3lb bracket come up as the Ebb Tide dropped away.
We had a move at slack water in readiness for the Flood Tide getting away and just as it started another 7lb Codling was picked up (on my hire rigs). It’s really important to use appropriate rigs. Tiny hooks and thin line are not ideal for the rough snaggy terrain we fish and breakaway leads are essential for uptiding.
I always want to try and help people as much as I can, to ultimately catch them more fish. Hopefully the lads learnt a few things today to add to their armoury for their next uptiding trip. Thanks boys, I enjoyed having you on board.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Sea Urchin IIl
