Nice to hear all,s well yeah spoke with r other half all good at that end cheers.
Well just came back from early morning outing lots of dolphins around today will get photos of dolphins next time im out and plenty mackerel on the bottom of the seafloor but i targeted cod today and put a pot in whilst waiting for the fish to bite and had a friendly seagull for company, came up trumps after a 2 hour wait with 2 lobsters for the table, and 2 cod. The cod was rod caught so not bad for a couple of hours taken on squid time for breakfast now and a quick shower and a few of todays photos..

Good fishing and better catching, @DARKSIDER . I met my nephew on the coast the other day for some surf fishing. We did plenty of fishing but catching was limited. A small blacktip shark, one whiting and a handful of small hardhead catfish.
Nice to see you were out buzz and better you had a catch up with family, a blacktip shark well done
and yes thats the joys of fishing as you know limited at times mostly were im from
I made sure to explain the difference between fishing and catching before starting.Nice to see you were out buzz and better you had a catch up with family, a blacktip shark well done
He did very well for the first time in the surf.
Sounds like he will of enjoyed his first outing especially with the catch partI made sure to explain the difference between fishing and catching before starting.

Well im just back from a couple of hours out on the boat was hard work, but worth the time out since this time i had a few dolphins near me, caught a few pouting used them for bait to catch this ling and a few prawns from morrisons for the cod so not to bad but hot once the sun came out still not a lot of mackerel as of yet but a few days of sun will fetch them closer to shore i was around 7 miles out today not in photos sea turned a bit lumpy after a couple of hours so headed home for some scran anyhow heres todays photos including dolphins.

Well thats another few hours fishing started at 4.30am finished 8.30am and soaked through to the skin and thats wearing a floatation suit too and a jacket underneath heavens opened up today and was hard work to say the least but still caught a few 15 mackerel and 2 cod worth keeping and a lot of whiting thrown back as to small,, Big swells today coming from the north and at one time had to rely on my compass as the fog came in fast couldnt see a bloody thing, but soon as i could see land the fog vanished but still rain so early finish for today,. shower time then breakfast well heres todays photos and my freezer is nearly full to the brim with cod so cannot complain too much eh..!!

fishing trips looks like you have had a few good trips and the food looks delicious curried mackerel looks amazing 
Thanks for looking in, .Appreciated,. Heres todays plate from this morning cannot get much better than that fresh as a daisy so to speak.fishing trips looks like you have had a few good trips and the food looks delicious curried mackerel looks amazing
Good you had a compass! swells are bo joke... Its crazy to think all the technology that keeps working, motor, etc to keep a boat going.... Check it often for oil, etc. Ive had a motor fall right off while running... But its a thrill huh? getting that close to reality and really feeling it. compared to slipping past anothet car at 100 and feeling nothing... Love feeling small in the ocean...

Never heard of coalfish before, but looking it up, seems similar to pollock? Caught a couple small ones today, but threw them back. I'll be back at it tomorrow. Weather is looking sunny and hot all week, so it'll be prime fishing.

It's the same thing.
Pollachius virens - Wikipedia
The saithe (Pollachius virens) is a species of marine fish in the Pollachius genus. Together with Pollachius pollachius,it is generally referred to in the United States as pollock. Other names include the Boston blue (separate from bluefish),coalfish/coley, and saithe in the UK, where the young fish are called podleys in Scotland and northern England.
Well todays trip showed more mackerel being caught and a good few whiting kept and also a few cod to fetch home was uncomfortable to say the least with some big swells but worth the outing a couple of small haddock thrown back and a lot of under size cod went back too as well as whitings and fed the birds a few small fish too saves them stealing the bait from my bait table over all was a decent few hours but no ling today hopefully next trip we shall see wonder what the wifes cooking for dinner or tea today..EDITED FOR DINNER PHOTO YUM YUM.

ever try fishing jugs? how deep is it where you fish? is it legal for you to set a setline with a half to a dozen circle hooks all with a live bait, and a jug on either side? anchored down with a rock, with the set line about 40 feet above and branch lines of a smaller size coming off 20 feet to a circle hook....I have mostly fished single jugs but that is the deep set way....
