Port Patrick Boat outing

Shane Mark and myself headed to Port Patrick on Sunday to meet up with the other 9 guy's going out on the charter boat Predator 2. We had been out with Dominic last time and he put us on the fish and we were not disappointed this time too.

Leaving the harbour at 9am and heading to our first stop inshore as the tide was a bit stronger then we thought for any tope fishing. Shane was first to land a couple of fish a nice haddock around a 1lb mark and a small spur of 3lbs 6ozs then the doggies began to play everyone getting them.





 As the tide slackened a bit around 12 we headed out for the bigger ones. At first we were hit with doggies again then Pete landed a nice Bull huss at 14lbs. Iain was next to land a nice tope of 23lbs 6ozs. Then some of the guys were landing doggies and Shane some whitting around the 1lb mark. I was next with a Bull huss at 11lbs 8ozs and then Matt was into something big maybe a bigger tope as his 50lb class rod had a good bend and as he got some line onto his reel the line snapped.
 





 The last couple of hours we went Pollack fishing and a few were caught. We had a sweep £2.50 for the heaviest fish and £2.50 for any other heaviest fish. Well done to Iain and Pete winning  £30 each. A good days fishing.
