The run of spring cod has been unprecedented with 28 on and 41 yesterday.

The biggest went to 7lb but gave fantastic sport on light tackle, shallow water and calm seas. Lets hope it continues. We also had makerel and plaice to 2 3/4 pound.

Late Summer Fishing

Late Summer Fishing

Lots of cod conger and plaice and the sight almost Carribean with 40 or so dolphins gamboling in clear blue water seemed to make this job very worthwile indeed.

I personally caught several plaice the best of which went 6 1/3 pounds the best this year and the cod and conger seemed prolific.
