    Report on-board Gwen-Paul-M

    A hard fought ground fishing trip today in less than ideal conditions. A rough old day presented itself with a north west ground swell from the previous night and a westerly force 4-5 but we managed to make the best of the weather. Mackerel proved hard work as they had been scattered by the swell from the north but we flicked out two or three dozen in the end.

    We anchored on a mark about 6 miles out and soon had boated a 10lb thornback ray. A few decent bull huss and the usual dogs kept the lads occupied. Just before slack a run on one rod and a 10 minute battle led to a fine 38lb tope coming in through the stern door.

    Well done lads for persevering with the weather (only one casualty!) and catching some great fish.
