Best Thing Since Sliced Bread

Andy Kendrick of jackslrf sent me same Nojos soft plastic baits 6 and 9 inc serpent worms for me to try out.
I took them down to the boat and had a little play over the side with them.

O boy what an action they move just like a real serpent no Pollack or Cod could refuse this lure.

Then tried a jelly worm they look lifeless in the water compared to the Nojos.
Then tried a red gill better but not as good as the Nojos.

Cant wait to try them out for real.
Go to www.nojosbaits.com and have a look at the video or www.jackslrf.co.uk.
They may just be the best thing since sliced bread.

Pollack fishing in Scotland

We had same good weather over the weekend good out onto the wrecks and lets catch same Pollack but it turned out lets see how many large Pollack we can lose.

You read so much in the angling press about having fun on light gear yep that's fine for inshore Pollack up to about 5lb in shallow water.but you try light tackle in 70/100
meters of water with very very hard fighting Pollack The Pollack will win most of the time.

Why tackle to light and the clutch on the reel to slack are the two main reasons.When a large Pollack takes the lure you don't have much time before the fish has worked out it been hooked and is heading at full speed back into the wreck as most of them did over the weekend.

Tackle to use,a good 30/50lb boat rod, reel a Shimano tdl or Penn 4/0 not ABU 6500,
Line i use 50lb power pro braid with a 40lb fluorcarbon leader.You may think that this is been a bit over gunned but same still get away.

Top Tip When you get hooked into a good large pollack don't mess about showing all your mates the rod bent double you have to get it clear of the wreck as quick as possible or YOU WILL LOSE IT.

Sea Fishing This Weekend ?

Weather is looking OK for this Saturday and Sunday light winds and almost no wind on Sunday Be nice to go fishing.

Individuals have always been hard to cater for.
So what i was thinking is setting up a mailing list so that i can just fire off an e mail and give them the opportunity of a days fishing.
I think that may just work maybe.
