Report on-board Bad Boyz VI
Trip number 3 of 2015 and trip 26 with Bad Boys overall for me took place on July 10th.
We had 2 novices o board with us this time and as the photo shows even a complete novice can grab a great fish when the skipper is prepared to work hard for you.
Not happy with the idea of sitting on a rock or trolling round the bay, Mel got us out to the mark he had selected by letting the engines open up and showing us what the new boat can do. Its quick, bloody quick to be honest and I cannot wait till August and our wrecking trip to really see what she can do.
Anyway
Brews, butties, and biccies were forced fed down our throats whilst at anchor and waiting for the fish to bite, a nervous hour or so passed before anything other than a doggie decided to bite but when the smoothies arrived they arrived in a pack and gave almost non stop action for a couple of hours.
Following lunch we ventured to the frifting marks which very strangely produced bugger all worth mentioning as far as eating fish goes but some very nice wrasse were boated and returned with just a few Pollock going home for the pot.
Fish of the day as mentioned went to the newbie.

5th June saw the first planned trip of the year on my personal favourite boat. 7 of us went in search of smoothies and Pollock and were not disappointed in what we found.
The smoothies ranged up to the 12lb mark and were great sport on lighter gear, what's more everyone on the boat enjoyed the fight with all 7 rods connecting at least twice with the fish that must be the most fun you can have on mid range gear.
Following on from the smoothie fun and having been refreshed by breakfast baps and brews we went on the drift at various locations both to the se and w of Holyhead.
As usual we were kept on the fish pretty much all day and easily hit the 100 takers mark. that said we returned far more than we kept as we want to get them again when they get bigger.
A top day out with great lads and a great skipper with plenty of fish going back.
Need I say more.
The photo btw is the first ever fish of any description caught by the lad holding it. I wonder why he wants to come again. LOL View Boats Page

Aaron kindly posted on Facebook that he had spaces available so after a quickish grovel to my beloved wife and a few phone calls I managed to fill two of them and get my first boat trip of the year with the best boat in north wales.
Max was the other rod who did everything he could to disprove the "Anyone Can Fish" sticker that adorns the wheelhouse wall. This was his first trip this decade so whilst his hopes were high his expectation wasn't.
We steamed out to make the best of the tide in what were not exactly calm waters but with no one else seeming to venture out that day we could have had our choice of marks.
Aaron put on the fish from the off with smoothies to the 16lb mark and the ubiquitous doggies in abundance. Drift work was hit and miss with little to write home about but a fish is a fish at the end of the day and 7 people went home more than happy with those that wanted to taking fish to cook.
Will be back soon as the service means you just daren't try other boats. View Boats Page
