Not that we’re competitive

Anyone who has fished out of Port Logan knows it has the potential to deliver a variety of species. On any given day almost any fish that swims in the seas around Scotland can be caught here.

I couldn't catch Wrasse for toffee but eventually managed one, Gordon's bogey fish was a Dab.

There were plenty of Haddock  when we drifted over the right type of ground.

We lost count of the Grey Gurnard we both caught. Who would manage a Red or Tub?

I got two Tub Gurnard before Gordon pulled this one back

The solitary and unexpected tiny Ling was one of the deciders!

 

Poor Cod, Cod, Whiting, Pollack, Ballan Wrasse, Cuckoo Wrasse, LSD, Ling, Dab, Tub Gurnard, Grey Gurnard, Mackerel, Thornback, Plaice, Haddock and Short Spined Sea Scorpion.

 

So Gordon took the honours on the day with a 14 to 12 victory and a total of 16 species to the boat. With a little more time and better weather in the late afternoon we might have got the total to 20.We didn't get around to  targeting any of the main predatory species but ended up having a laugh and a great days fishing scratching around for the small stuff. It was good to catch up with Gordon again and our trip of course, was not without incident! ;0)
