munterhunter Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 with favourable forecasts we decided to give tuesday eve a bash and with hw@20:00 things were looking good, went to outer patch picked up enough mackerel and got down to some fishing. Doggy after doggy and a bream, tide slackens off and boat sits cross ways onto swell so head in to drift fuel barge area and have a 3lb bass and a 1 1/2lb smoothy. go home frustrated at teh weather. Me - 9 doggies, 1 bream, 1 bass Nick 2 doggies, 1 smut Never previously had much luck drifting with peeler but decided to not peel the peeler and mount on hook and crush shell slighty so juices wouldnt wash out, and mount whole onto hook, this is what had bass on. Maybe a tactic I wil repeat as may stop small bream destroying the bait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
