Steve S Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 This time of year anchoring and getting a good scent trail going is the usual method. Cod are very thin on the ground so don't get your hopes up too much even if you do everything right. Maverick Martin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry.shutter Posted November 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Dear All, Unfortunately the weather seems to be just a bit too much tomorrow considering the different size boats and the fact for the Cod and Whiting you have to travel a bit further. As a responsible club I think the only sensible thing is to postpone and hope we get another chance before Christmas.

Greg Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Totally the right decision Jerry. Good call. I have been holding off putting our names down for tomorrow due to the uncertainty of the weather. Look forward to the next date.

Leicester Fisheagle Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Thanks Jerry, I would not have made it as Ann is positive for Covid on today's PCR Test Results. Although I am still negative. She really isn't well and it is her birthday on Sunday. Mike Hall could well be taking Fisheagle out with a couple of other Club Members. There have been several Cod to almost double figures caught in the Harbour this week. niggle and Stuie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Fox Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I fished Southbourne for a few hours this afternoon. The sea was smooth, but with a big swell from the south Waves were breaking beyond the 5 knot buoys, consistently more than 2m. As the tide neared high, and the light faded, the biggest waves were obscuring the horizon several hundred yards out so were 3m and a set of those reached my tripod. I packed it in, as I didn't fancy any of those after dark. Good call Jerry, it would have been unpleasant conditions outside of sheltered waters. Ps had a nice schoolie Jim and Stuie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 We were at Portland this pm and were looking out onto a smoothish looking sea close in but with large rollers crashing up the rocks. Looking out at the boats fishing both the race and the shambles they looked to be rolling and pitching a lot Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Nash Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 I did go out Sunday, about 6 or 7 miles out. There were three or 4 other boats there too. It was "do-able" but not particularly comfortable and certainly not productive. I gave it about 3 hours, one doggie and a conger and headed back to the shelter of the harbour. That produced crabs, crabs and more crabs. Roll on the 28th. niggle and Jim 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted November 19, 2021 Report Share Posted November 19, 2021 Joking aside, I have had a Trigger on the boat caught by Bournemouth Pier. Like all Triggers, they feed mainly in one small area and at a certain time of the tide running. The skill is knowing where and when to fish for them!!!!! To prove this, when I was snorkelling in Barbados, there was a small concrete jetty by the hotel. At the end of the jetty was about 10 feet of water. Amongst other fish there was a Trigger that would visit at certain times of the day and at exactly the same spot. So the answer to all of this is to get your Budgie smugglers on and go hunting, that is if you are that desperate to catch one !!!!!
