Monday 7/9/15
I had a group of anglers from Newmarket and they arrived on Vanishing Point-2 at 0730, we were all ready for them, so within a few minutes the ropes were cast off, and we were on our way once again to the prolific offshore mark that fished so well yesterday (although we couldn’t fish it for the first 2 hours yesterday due to conditions) but today we were determined to hit our mark 26 miles out from Bradwell for the first of the ebb..!!
Once we arrived on the mark, it was a little on the swelly side but no problem to our huge cat..!!! So once the anchor went down, lines were cast out, and within 2 minutes Mike had a lovely fish on, so quick in fact some of the others hadn’t even cast in..!!!! What…!!!!!!!!! They had a quid for the first fish, so that fish was null and void.
After about 6 or 7 minutes we had a double hook up, one fish 12 lbs, and another 9 lbs, and it just didn’t stop all day..!! I don’t know exactly how many Skate were caught today??? Somewhere between 55 and 60 really good fish, many around the 10 lbs mark I would say, they kept around 18 fish, and some of the larger dog fish, but returned a lot of fish to the water alive..!!! great fishing, by great fishermen, some for the table, and many returned to fight another day… well done chaps really good day, hope we see you all again soon..
