waynes undulate

A nice double figure undulate from st caths for sinkers weighmaster Wayne Cassin.

Looks like the rays have started moving at st Caths,this 15.1Lb blonde ray by Mark le Huquet was the winner in our weekend ray comp.Mark also had a 5Lb small eyed
during the week.well done Mark.
Undulate rays have also been caught with one st caths regular getting 2 in one session.I have had reports of about 10 others,sadly not by club members.
Also there seems to be plenty of Bream comming up on the back wall,but quality fish are few & far between, they mostly seem to be in the 1Lb to 1.8Lb size with the odd fish over 2Lb.
So come on people get out there its all starting to happen.

New club record Wrasse, boat caught.

A couple of our boat anglers went out today and tried for wrasse. It was ideal conditions, calm seas and a small tide. Bob Jameson had a lovely one of 5lb 8oz, and to be honest we all thought that would win him the wrasse trophy for this year. But ten minutes later Nelson Gouveia went and landed a cracking wrasse of 6lb 6oz 1dr, a new club record. The old club record had stood since 1990 and was held by Tony Vibert (6lb 2oz 12dr).

Here is Bob with his lovely 5lb 8oz.



And here is Nelson with a stonking wrasse of 6lb 6oz 1dr.



These big fish were not caught in the conventional way, the boys went out with spinning rods, small fixed spool reels and jelly worm style artificial baits. The fight from wrasse is emmence, they really are hard fighting fish so top marks to the lads for using this new and very sporting method.

Nice Bass for Liam

Club member Liam Harrison had a nice 6lb bass on saturday. Liam was suffering a bit of a hangover and thought a bit of fresh air would do him good, so he took his rod, reel and plugs for a walk. It didnt take him long to land this nice bass on a Megabass Zonk plug. The fish was a very healthy 6lb'er, thick-set and full of food. Well done Liam, and it is a bit of encouragement for us all that the season is upon us.
