The drive up was interesting, loads of surface water and traffic. Anyway I met up with Gordon who is currently up there for five days and as we left the confines of the sheltered harbour we were met with a lots of white water and more rain. The pram hood was up in the boat so when it swung round to anchor we picked up some shelter. An hour in and we thought about pulling the plug on it due to the wind. We stuck it out and although we didn't get any Skate( maybe a blessing given the waves) we picked up Whiting, Doggie's, Conger and my first Black Mouth Dogfish for species number 45. The wind dropped away nicely as was forecast but by this time we had had enough and it was time to call it a day. Thanks again to Gordon and I hope the weather gets better for the rest of his trip.
