    Report on-board Mistress

    A cracking days fishing aboard Mistress. After a few mackerel drops, we headed north out of the river and fished a couple of wrecks. I didn't have much luck on hokkais, so I changed to a shad. The first cod I picked up was about 4lb. Then on the next drift I had a thumping bite from another cod, which weighed in at 16lb 8oz - a personal best. I continued the same tactics, landing another 8 cod around the 3 to 4lb. Matthew, a young lad fishing from a boat for the first time, changed to a shad. Following a bit of advice from the skipper, he started to land a few Cod himself. A great day, with everyone landing fish. Many thanks Tony.
