    Report on-board Vanishing Point-2

    Well the weekend was interesting, with ENE winds forecast, and huge tides to 6.3 mtrs, we were fortunate that the low waters were around 0830 to 0900 over the weekend, so we had wind and tide together nearly all day.... result...!!
    On Saturday we pushed 22 miles East from Bradwell and fished a mark I have not fished for several years, fishing was not easy but a lovely day light winds, and wall to wall sunshine.. then Jez Spencer from
    Gt Yarmouth started off the proceedings with a decent Skate, then we caught all around the boat, I think we boated around 20 Roker and a few Whiting.
    Sunday 13th March the wind was picking up to around 24 mph again ENE but we got there at low water and although a bit more of a lump in the water, we managed to boat about 18 Roker with Troy Botterell kicking off the proceedings and more followed from all around the boat. phew I was running from the stern, to the bow...(got that right Troy??) but another decent day in what was not the best conditions..
    Yesterday Monday 14th March was another day of ENE winds which was blowing at 31 mph, and again we left at low water and steamed 25 miles east of Bradwell, and fished all day in relative comfort and the boys from Newmarket had a good day on the Roker fishing, but it has to be noted, that we caught more fish yesterday on whole squid, it out fished Herring !! while over the weekend you couldn't go wrong with Herring strange how things change.??
    Ok guys will report back after the weekend as we are not out now until then.... unless anyone wants to makes up a trip then give me a call.... tight lines...!!
