Boat League 06/08/2016

This trip proved to be one of our better outings this year with plenty of fish coming to the boat. 14 different species were caught but it was fortunate that the dogfish were not there in abundance. Lots of smoothounds and quite a few bullhuss were caught which is always good fun. There has been a shortage of the smaller species in previous trips but it was pleasing that the usual poor cod, pouting, pollack and mackerel put in an appearance. It was also nice to see a couple of small black bream.

The league competition was closely fought with the lead changing several times during the day. The eventual winner was John Thompson closely followed by Mike Tanner, Terry Giles took third place. These three anglers managed to amass in excess of 600 points which is no mean fete using our scoring system.

Next one September 4th sailing at 10.15.

Mike.
