Cod Fishing on Sunday

[Camelot]

In preparation for our best fish supper photo competition over Easter, I took my crew out on Sunday to train them up. The wife, Angie managed to bag two codling. But was out done by our youngest, 6 year old Matthew, who managed to catch three, 1.5lbs, 2lbs and 3lbs. Unfortunately his brother and sister went home empty handed.

Some photos:-










Matthew wants me to help him make fish cakes tomorrow evening.

I agree - fillets are my preference, but Matthew prefers fish cakes (he is only 6), and as he caught them I'm quite happy to let him have his however he wants it!

Congratulations. I was disappointed that I could not get to the recent fishing talk at the club.

So, where did you fish? Did you anchor or drift? State of tide? What bait, etc?

We were anchored off Cardiff foreshore (left turn after Outer Wrach, about 1 Nm). We got there just before HW and stayed for about an hoar and half. We had planned to use squid and rag worm, my usual preference, but ended up using just the rag worm - bought £2 worth and ended up throwing most of it in the water, so our dinner was cheap!
