ChrisE Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 We went out on Saturday om and Sunday pm. Sat was off Milford where we had one bream, one plaice, one dogfish and one smoothhound in about 90 mins fishing, nothing special but all on light gear and the smoothie, around 8lb, kept my brother amused for 10 mins or so. We then tried a drift or two off a nearby reef and caught the first bass of the year on lures plus lost several and had quite a few pulls, all boding well for the coming season. Sunday it was off to The Ledge, where for the first time in a long time there were over a dozen boats trying for bream. We fished one spot for an hour with one pout to show for our efforts then moved up to another spot. My brother caught a bream around 3lb then I had knock and hauled in a 2-3lb edible crab. Took us the best part of 5 mins to get the hook out of one its legs without losing a finger to one of its huge claws. We had two more bream and a pout before the tide died and the YC called. Next trip in early June, hopefully the bream and bass will be well established by then, toodle-pip!
