    Report on-board Hurricane

    well the cod have arrived and it looks like it could be a good year.
    the average size is 6lb with bigger ones among them and reports from the commercial lads tell me that there are much more on the way up the estuary.
    we have had a good run of smoothounds up until 2 weeks ago and also found plenty off bass but these are all but gone now apart from the few stragglers.
    the weather reports are not good for the coming week lets just hope they got it wrong so we can enjoy some decent sport after last years terrible cod season for us in the estuary.
    now all the dredging cable laying and general upheaval has ended it seems we can enjoy the good fishing the estuary has to offer again.
    latest report just 2 of us had a day out yesterday in thick fog and calm seas we managed 8 nice cod to 8lb and lost count of the big channel whiting plus we had one thornback ray of 6lb.
