pleasure bash part 1 tuesday 12 June

hi... me and pete plaskett off Blu Noze launched at about 7.30 am today on Kingfisher..bit of a breeze but not too bad,, straight out past the windfarm to look for mackeral,, we then spent a good half hour watching some porpoises herding sandeels to the surface, as they did this the gannets where diving in like exocet missiles,,, great fun to watch from about 10 yards away.... then pushed on to a mark a bit further out..what a day.....loads of fish... lots of mackeral, whiting, dogs, dabs,tub gurnard, bull huss to about 15lb... pete got a skate just over 15lb and then latched in to something different,,,we were hoping forr tope and thats what we thought he had hooked.... till we landed it in the boat,,,, a fantastic 15lb 10oz Spurdog!!,, what a great catch,,, never seen one up close before..what a beast,,,, we wieighed it a got it back in the water asap as we think it was in pup..great watching her swim away nicely.
Then back in to the rock channel too see if we could find some plaice,, no chance... by now it was cold northerly blowing,, tried by the egg bouy for the last 20 minutes then back on the beach for 4pm...great day out where one side of the boat fishes better than the other,, ah well,,, my turn tomorrow i hope!! good day out, good weather and good fishing,, what more do we want? part 2 tomorrow ( hopefully )... keith
