    I can do three snappering / four on the cod / gurnard ...would like to do a couple of dives which is great for me but shit house boring for the crew! So a two or three divers / spearo's and a boatman for one day would be mint.

    Another morning snappering if people want to scratch that itch...or a morning slaughtering cod and gurnard!

    Was half pie thinking of packing the yak but the roof rack is too high to reach, unless I bring a car.

    Be gone by the time we set forth @Gapped axe! Studying three differnt weather sites. Vis could well be shit but the swell will drop and a southerly will flatten it further then small tides and light winds as the anti cyclone takes hold ..we could well be in for a bloody epic weekend!!

    Well that's what I'm selling to the punters ...got a couple of spot at French pass that hold solid cod and with some burley average brim so with surfcasters and a bit of luck we should be able to bring a smile or to to faces, that or head for the inner sounds out of Elain that is protected from a lot of the shit weather and burn some fuel and burley hunting new turf!

    Should be well done and dusted by the weekend. Looks like it is blowing out as it hits the country.

    Same. A dive or 2 and some snapper is what I am keen on.

    No worries my missus caught her very first snapper at Rams head, 22lb and her second was 19lb, kind of hard to top that but she did in the local fishing competition a few years ago
