Sorry for my lack of posting lads, I've meant to put reports up a number of times, but for one reason or another.. Didn't ?

It's been busy out there!... So it's been an exercise in avoiding the crowds rather than going to the best spots.... Hate to be crammed in when fishing!.... Even if I get less fish, its still more enjoyable than being dragged in every other cast!

Anyway, the fishing has been extremely patchy since my last report, the blondes have gone, the hounds arrived, the cod still about.... Odd that one!

The dogs seem to have thinned a bit, so trips down channel are less of a nightmare!.... About time, and it gave me the incentive to pop down and complete the channel ray slam.... Always nice that.

Hounds though have been my main target, and so far I've failed to find any big ones (by channel standards), although it's still been great fun having the reel scream on the takes.... I do love hounds?

Thornbacks as always keep you busy, cracking fish in my book.... Give a good scrap and always willing to scoff a squid bait.... Saving many a blank day for me.

Eels are showing as well now ?

Enough words here's a few pics of some better fish from last few weeks ?

Nice report Si - fantastic photos, as always! Always love your catch reports. ???
 
Brilliant as always Si, some cracking rays there.

Hounds, meh, lol, but I do want to have at least one trip on them soon.

If the doctors ever allow me to carry on normal fishing duties and I am able ???
 
Cheers lads, it's great having good size fish on your doorstep.... Shame we don't get the variety, but a good bend in the rod is great motivation to try harder next time!
Good luck all out this weekend ?
 
Nice fish there mate, but its not like catching a Tompot is it!

Seriously though, nice fish.
Haha., no mate Tompots much more fun ?

I'll have ago for them again very soon.... Can't wait to flex the little rods again!

Borrowed some proper big rods the last couple days.... New PB ??????..... Love sea fishing.... So many diff things to target ??
