    Report on-board Optimist

    It's December and there is still some good fishing on the days between the Blows, this week we managed a few hours on a couple of Marks within spitting distance of the shore first drifting over them before putting the hook down we had been targeting Codling but were rewarded with some very nice Whiting the majority of which were returned to the depths whist a few were kept for the pot. we also managed a few Rays mainly Thornbacks but a undulate put in an appearance at the surface before line snapped (it was light tackle) and away it went. Dogfish put in a brief appearance but were very small. Good days fishing was had by all and the picture shows the skipper does catch even if only Baby Thornback Ray duly returned after the picture to find its Mummy and Daddy.
    Don't forget Optimist is afloat and available throughout the winter season Weather permitting of course and a Merry Christmas and Tight Lines for 2015 to all our Anglers, we look forward to welcoming you aboard in 2015 for some good fishing on some marks that are a little bit different from the usual and produce some unexpected results
