Out again hoping to get through the unicorns and catch some doggies and pout. We were using single and double flappers and a baited set of mini muppets. After 20 minutes I got a good rattle and a decent but skinny whiting came up and returned. The day proceeded like that, small shoals of fish coming through and causing mayhem and periods of quiet so we could get fed n watered.
Mostly small unicorns with this the better one of the lot.
We had one good whiting and a couple of doggies, several pout and a decent amount of codling for what is usually a quiet time of year. Other boats in the area were blanking but not sure why. Lots of porpoise in the area again and fish were full of sandeel and crab, those we returned were also coughing up fish etc. Lots of bird life too, gannet, puffin, guillemot and some lovely fulmar begging to be fed.
Coming back in the place was packed with a cruise liner, cargo ship and the DFDS ferry.
Thai green curry for madam tomorrow and whiting fishcakes for my granddaughter
