Out again today – this time with Melvin’s crew from Gravesend.

Weather is looking okay for the morning but not particularly good in the afternoon. We left at 5am to get in the best of the fishing before we had to come back.

After an hours steam we dropped anchor and started fishing. They had 3 skate in the boat straight away and 1 codling.

All looking good, then Melvin hit a fish and it looked a good one but after a battle it suddenly dropped his bait.

We lost the tide, so a little move out a bit and straight back into skate and another codling. As the tide started to flood the wind increased so we had to make a move closer to home. The move produced only 1 whiting so we called it a day.

Cheers guys for a good day.

All the best,

Skipper Steve
