    Report on-board Ocean explorer

    Well what a change,for what seamed ages in the cod catch rate over the past few weeks some people were actually catching cod .
    The day started slow with only a few fish being caught in the morning on rough ground and as the wind started to increase , it was very hard to do any wreck fishing,so we continued to use the marks we had on our plotter to target some good ground that produced a good few cod well into the afternoon.
    Most fish caught were from 4.5lb to just over 7lb , but nice fresh cod they were too.
    No sign of any mackerel yet on any of the ground we covered today , but if the cod are late , so must be the mackerel .
    To sum up it was a good day for most on board today ,with over 20+ cod being caught , and me only catching a single cod,as did the skipper .........................Oh and the skipper Lee catching a extra one ........................a large rock...........hahahaha
