It was touch and go whether the trip on Tuesday would go ahead
with threatening north easterly winds
But after a brief chat to Ross the skipper Monday night he
was willing to give it a go , so a rather early 5am start was on the cards to
pick up friends Geoff and Roy for the trip to Brixham,
This was to be my first trip out on a boat for 30 years
since having fished the Kent and Sussex marks when living in London,
We arrived at Brixham by 7.00 am and where soon off to the
first wreck some 1hour and 20mins motoring time away and his boat does motor, a
10M Cougar Catamaran which he built last year,
We had all tackled up with 12oz ball weights and various
shads and started catching fish on the
first drop , plenty of Pollack with a nice cod came to the boat, after 4 drifts
it was off to the next wreck which pretty much how the day progressed ,
A Nice Pollock of around 9lb |
