South West Reefing for a few hours.

Took my boy out on the mid bristol channel reefs just to get a few bites. Started at low. First cast lost a nice bass, looked to be 4 maybe 5lb. Boy then lands a nice eel 9lb9oz, then it's my turn with an eel of 11lb7oz. My lad then lands a bass of 5lb2oz, then has his hooks snapped twice by big eels. Then to rub salt into the wounds my boy then lands a tidy flounder after casting into one of the muddy spots as we were pushed off. Surprised there were no rays, but good to see some life in the channel after a long winter.

I fished out there today, absolute dog fest, must of had 20 of them at least. I did manage a 6lb3oz small eye and bumped another ray off. The wind was a nightmare, it's always a bit swirly, hitting from all directions, always the same out there. Once the dogs thin out it can be brilliant for numbers of rays, often get blonde, small eye and spotted in the same session. Ive even landed 4 rays in 4 casts on the same bait! Can be a good codling spot on the ebb, when there are codling about, hounds on low and first of the flood, plus huss to 12lb during may.
