Had the boat in the water by 4.00 then headed out to Mud to drop some pots in then over too the 4 beacons.There was already a couple of boats on each beacon but we saw some birds working to the west.Went over to investigate but couldn't get a hookup on anything we threw at them.The bait they were chasing was only about 1 inch long.Bit hard to match that sizeDid a few drifts through the channel with one hookup on a weighted pillie but that was the only bit of excitment while drifting.
Was about to float out a couple of pillies when we had a couple of visitors.Mum dolphin with a calf.They ended up having a feed of pillies wich allowed me to get a couple of pics.Not much else happening so it was off to Mud again.Plenty of boats out but didn't see a great deal of action.Decided to pull the pots and head for home at 11.30.
Started with 8 pots came home with 7{thieving pricks}Ended up with 16 sandies.
All in all couldn't have asked for better weather and great just being out there
