My whiting season has been a bit average so far, so it's interesting you say yours were a bit small. Makes me feel slightly better 🤣.
I reckon with the relatively warm winter we've had I'll give it another month then hit the plaice to see if they've come in early. High hopes 🤞🤞
I've heard on the grapevine that some (very) early plaice have been showing from shore in East Sussex/Brighton way. Can't be too long before they make their way a bit further west. Anyone else heard of any coming out, either from shore or afloat?
Agree - don't think my plotters have ever read 0 knots at sea, and even when I've had a plotter running on a battery at home the speed usually reads 0.1-0.2 knots when stationary.
Yep, that was us! Second time we've met on the water it seems. Last time was at the Fingers if I remember correctly. 👍
Glad you found some keepers. I was hoping for one or two for a friend but none turned up on the end of my line 😖
I've done it before, but it's been a bit hit & miss. Had one in Jersey a few years ago from a harbour wall, and have tried in Pompey with no luck. Might give the 3 jig flapper a go at anchor over slack.
Top dangling! Well done.
I keep meaning to try for squid in Portsmouth but as I'm not local it seems a long way to drive just for a chance of squid. Dogfish on the other hand.... 😉
