3am Mudeford launch


richi

Recommended Posts

Launched from the quay at 3,bit of a westerly but nothing like last night.

 

Soon made it round to pout hole and anchored up.

 

Had 2 rods out to start(had even brought some ragworm and 3 rods as I was determined not to blank)both with Squid on pennel rigs.

 

Dead on 4am----hefty bite and we're away,felt like a Conger but wasn't putting up the usual fight.Got it to the surface -----------

a strap---smallest one I've caught from the yak,had swallowed the hook deep had to cut the mono

 

5.20am and Conger no.2 for the session was on the hook,thankfully lip hooked this time!

put some rag on the 3rd rod and caught a pouting

 

lobbed the excess bait over the side and headed back about 7.30 am happy with my 8th and 9th of the year :clap2:

I must go down to the sea again

To the lonely sea and sky

I left my shoes and socks there

I wonder if they're dry?

Well done Richi,

It's dedication like that which sorts the men from the buoys or the fishers from the fishless.I suspect you're a nutter and also that we'd get on very well,

Cheers Jon.
