    Report on-board Sweet William

    Huge thanks to the lads for an impromptu run out today.

    We set off this morning with pretty much no wind and very calm seas, as compared to the last month of relentless northerly swells!

    Once the slack water had almost passed, we dropped the anchor on the inner rough ground and waited for the tide to start to flood.

    There were no bites whatsoever for the first 30 minutes, but once the tide began to properly push, codling, pouting and whiting began to come onboard in waves.

    As we approached the midday slack water, we hauled anchor and headed out to try a few wrecks; we tried every type of bait and rig but nothing noteworthy made an appearance other than a nice little haddock and numerous big fat pouting.

    Once the tide began to ebb, and the drift speeds increased, we stopped for some refreshments before the steam home.

    Fantastic run out for this time of year, with great craic and conditions!

    If you fancy a day on the water contact the skipper, Geoff, on 07740 706007 with all enquires.
