    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    The last couple of trips have seen two completely different approaches.

    I had three friends join me last week for a days Lure Fishing tight inside, under the cliffs. We didn’t know if the water would be clear enough yet, but we certainly got some fish on the flood tide. Pollack and Codling took a selection of metal lures, shads and Jellyworms for a few hours, which was great sport. I also saw my first Minky Whale of the year, so the Herring must be on their way.

    Today we had a great bunch of lads on and with a tide just below 5m, we headed off early so we could get in two slack waters to maximise time on the wrecks, where there has been a better stamp of fish recently.
    It was worth going out early, as we got a few Codling to 4lb in the boxes by the time the Ebb finished.

    We then ran out to the seven mile rough ground for a few hours drift fishing. We didn’t take anything enormous, but there were plenty of bites each drift from Codling, Haddock, Ling, Whiting, Pouting and a solo Scorpion Fish.

    We ran back inside for the second slack, but the wrecks we picked didn’t produce much at all. I took us to the three mile ground to finish off and pleasingly, we found a few pockets of fish. Biggest fish of the day was a Ling of 9lb 4oz, but after that we were down to 4lb Codling.

    Nothing much to write home about, but everyone got a few to take home and I really enjoyed the company. With falling tides the next few days, and some settled weather, hopefully we’ll manage to find a few.
