Not much of a day! We didn't have much of a day weather wise or fishing wise on Thursday, we had quite a few spells of "rock & rolling" when the wind changed direction & gusted, but nothing too bad. We probably wouldn't have noticed if the fishing had been good, but personally I had only dogfish & lunatic fish. Peter fared better having both dogs & lunatics, plus a good size thornback, plus 3 or 4 nice dabs & a nice plaice (plus he missed a big plaice because he never used the net, & we watched it swim away) Well he has been told, & I put the net next to him, lesson learned I hope. We had some rollers coming home but they were behind & helped us along, unfortunately my battery in the car was flat? Luckily Allan Walters came in at the same time & gave me a lift home & took me down with a charged battery this morning. The inconvenience of only 2 on board is not the only inconvenience we have to suffer! Skipper Vic

Dean Gifford I wondered why your car was still there last night when we got back in. We had an enjoyable evening, loads of corkwing wrasse, 8-10 pollack, millions of small bream, tompot blenny, half a dozen conger and just 2 doggies. Was blowing a fair bit when we were on our way back in at 9:30. Paul Eaton The joys of being a skipper !! Victor Lilygreen Its days like that, that give me second thoughts! Wendy Lilygreen I've not heard of lunatic fish, or thornback fish before. Victor Lilygreen Lunatic Fish are smooth hounds (like a small shark) that go berserk when you have one on the line, sometimes even jumping out of the water. Thornbacks are a species of ray & resemble a dustbin lid wrapped up in barbed wire, & covered in slime yuk lol Paul Eaton A bin lid covered in barb wire.. that is the best description of a Ray I’ve ever heard !!
