Got off to a good start with two decent lobsters in the pot so that was tea sorted. Fished the first two hours of the ebb with peeler baits. The first few got robbed by pout and whiting before my wife had a typical smoothhound bite and run which resulted in a 7.5lb Bass! (only 993 to go). I then had a fat pregnant smoothie which went 14lb - best one so far this year for me. Lovely out there, absolutely flat calm. Shirt off for the first time this year!"
