    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    It’s been a long time coming, but today was one of those days…..

    We had some brilliant weather, some brilliant anglers and some brilliant fishing. With a good wrecking tide and light winds, there was only one obvious choice for us. We gathered some fresh Mackerel for bait (to supplement the usual frozen Squid) and hit the inshore wrecks! The drift speed was ideal, so we picked wrecks which matched the drift line, to maximise the amount of time on the structure.

    In all, we fished five wrecks for the day. The first was a bit chewy and only did a couple of small fish. It was completely different on the second, with a good few Codling each drift. I was disappointed with the size, but then the tide just dropped off a bit and things kicked in nicely.

    Plenty of fish in the 3-5lb bracket started coming up and David Oxborough helped himself to a Codling just into double figures. Slack water was the usual disappointment, so we had a couple of moves while it was slack.
    Just as the flood tide got away on a new wreck, we were back in business.

    Some more quality fish with Martin Novo taking an 8lb Codling, Ian Kellock almost filling a box with Codling using an orange JellyWorm and then Paul Andrews winched up a 12lb 8oz Codling to finish off a brilliant day.

    I was so pleased for everyone. There was some great angling today. Well done to everyone.
