    Report on-board Amino

    Funny how things turn out aint it?

    Having set out in view of searching for a few Bass with the big tide today, we headed out to a spot where theres been a few caught recently. Trawlers and nets in the area suggested fish would be there and after a few dogfish and a small whiting, Cliff had what looked like another Doggy bite. Reeling into it, it came to the boat easily and then the rod tip started jagging and a Bass estimated around 8-9lb surfaced at the boat where it promptly dived and shed the hook...:-(

    We moved after the next hour didnt produce but with poor visibility we couldnt head off any distance so settled behind a bank where we had a few more Dogs and a Flounder. As visibilty improved and with no Bass showing up we headed offshore further and found some Hounds to 9lb, Doggies, a stray Cod around 5lb and a Pout before Cliff had another bite and hooked into something that started jagging on the rod tip.....

    This was the result....a 12lb personal best Bass for Cliff and a new boat record for Amino. Well chuffed. :-)
