<font color='#000000'>Well, I think not too many people would disagree that this was, collectively as a club, one of the poorest trips for catches that we have had. Felt a bit sorry for the skipper as he was obviously trying his hardest to find the fish, but for some reason they just didn't want to know.
We had 'some' success, Peggy caught what most people reckoned was the biggest Red Gurnard they had ever seen, which weighed in at 2 1/2 pounds, and he had the only Black Bream of the day which was a nice fish. 'Rob the Cod' is now also known as 'Rob the Bull Huss' after he caught a nice 10 pounder.
Over the day we searched for Bass - no luck, Tope - no luck but loads of flippin Dog Fish, Black Bream - one on the whole boat, Mackerel - limited success when we were catching the joeys for bait, a couple of decent size, but even they seemed to have disappeared later in the day.
Anyone have any idea why the fish weren't feeding? Let's just hope it's better next weekend.
