    Report on-board Mistress

    Another gap in the weather saw us putting to sea with a group of Mistress regulars.

    I was a bit unsure of how it pan out for us with the tides being as big as they are at the minute, we fished an area that hasnt been touched for while, and were rewarded with some great fishing all day long. The lads managed to amass a great catch of between 80 & 90 Codlings, with many returned. The best angler taking 25+ codlings himself.

    Most of the Cod were in the 2lb-4lb bracket with a couple of better ones thrown in, the best topping the boat scales at 9lb 8oz for Nigel Horan of Halifax.

    I try to encourage throwing anything under 40cm back, we had to keep a few that were deep hooked, but great conservation effort again lads, well done.

    Top baits were black lug, Cart, mussel and squid.
