Well big spring tides and Derek Buesnel and I thought we might get a few but the trip started disappointing with two 3lb fish being taken on a redgill and black shad.
We moved onto deeper water where there was a fast current flowing between some rocks. Derek cast out with the famous black shad and bang hsi line took off, luckily his van staal behaved perfectly as line was stripped from his reel.The fish was quick to come to the surface and we could see it was a decent fish. Eventually being netted by an expert skipper. The fish was measured on the Bass tape and my boga grips it came back just over the magical 10lb mark.
The fish was returned back into the water to fight another day. Excuse the photographs but they have been edited to hide the exact location
The fish safely in the net
The first time I have seen Derek smile
We had 2 further fish just under 3lbs
I am not jealous it is nice to see an elderley fisherman like Derek catch a decent fish at last
