    Report on-board Why Worry

    Today at last after all the wind we have had,we managaed to get Offshore for the Tope.We went....we caught one....Just not a very big one.In all honesty I think it is over for the year.Perfect tide,Bait,area and none there.I am not hearing of any anywhere in the Thames by anyone.I just don't think it is worth the journey and fuel anymore this year.We missed the best of it because of the weather we had.
    We still caught plenty of fish,just not Tope.We had Rokers,smaller hounds etc.Plenty of Mackerel this morning once I had found them.They were not where they have been for a week,having moved a couple of miles to the East.The Rokers (Thornback Rays) have now moved offshore and it is pretty much carpeted with them out there on the Tope grounds.Smaller Smoothounds and the odd Bass are on the contours of the Offshore banks with them.
    Tomorrow and Sunday we will concentrate on the Hounds and the bigger Bass in the deep water.Lets hope the weather holds out.Next week isn't looking too sharp at all and looking to be back 'Tied up' again.
