jerry.shutter Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 I gave a trip in an auction for Julia’s house and Air Ambulance before Covid. After cancelling 3 times due to bad weather November 5th looked good. Hard frost and grit on the marina added to the day as a beautiful sunrise appeared. Two anglers appeared, who even though they insisted they were fishermen it transpired Mackerel trips on family holidays were the extent of there experience. No worries, saw Fisheagle at the bridges, tried to call at various times on 6 but no response throughout the day. Probably catching too many fish😜 The guys wanted to catch Bass, after a fruitless hour+ we gave up trying to get live bait, so headed east where we struggled. Superb weather and the two anglers managed Bass to 56cms 4-5lbs, Tub Gurnard and LSD. Certainly not a red letter day but they were over the moon, incredible amount of baitfish in the water which we could not identify or match. Hooky appeared at the bridges having had a day out. Cobbs had no water so no wash down, funny old world!!!!! Hooky, Steve S, Rob and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 Good effort, what a treat for them to only have 2 anglers onboard.R Jim and jerry.shutter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 I nearly called you this am, not that I was interested in your outing but you had the bloody bridge up and stopped me going to work. Glad you all had a reasonable day both fish and weather wise. Tony and I are out am tomorrow but looking at the weather suspect we will be back early doors for a Doombar or 1,2,3 or 4 Stuie, Jim, niggle and 4 others 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted November 11, 2021 Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 Hi Mal, Do boats that do not have AIS/Radar come up on your Marine tracking system? Or, is the vessel shown but un-named? Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
