    Report on-board Amino

    Out today with Peter, Mark, Martin and John on a flat calm sea with hardly a breath of wind, conditions were perfect.

    Went to the first mark and had Dogfish and Whiting to start then John landed his first ever Cod of 5lb just before the end of the tide. Martin then had a small bite which turned out to be a personal best Cod of 10lb 12oz :-). A few more Dogfish and Whiting followed and then it went quiet so we headed another mile off to a deeper spot with a bit more tide and almost straight off John was into something big that took line..and more line and the rod bent double! Turned out to be a foul hooked Thornback of 6lb!!.

    Peter then added another Thornback of around the same size before he leant into something else that started nodding on the tip and in came another nice Cod of 9lb 12oz. We lost a couple more good fish and as the tide eased we had a few more Dogfish but that was to be it in terms of quality. Listening to the radio there were a few Cod caught but not in any great numbers so I think we faired ok on the day.

    Here's Martin with his new PB Cod..
