Boat fishing from exmouth sat 25th apr

[darrelc]

I have a few spaces for this Saturday (25th Apr) aboard Shande from Exmouth for Pollock and Ling. The weather's meant to be good for the weekend. The skipper Ian Goff is excellent and I have been out with him many times before. We are a friendly bunch of guys.

If you are interested please let me know asap.

I'll be going out on this boat in a fortnights time, I've only been on a boat a few times and that was on this boat also fishing for pollack, had a cracking time. since I don't know anything about boat fishing can someone give some pointers as how to fish for the target species. Cod on the drift over wrecks, have'nt a clue to rigs or lures, there seems to be so many.lol

Last time (a while ago) I successfully caught some decent pollack using a very large eddystone eel (black one about 10" from nose to tail) on a 4 foot running trace with a weight on a swivel on the end of the line.

Mackerel for bait (can add to the eel lure for added attraction) can be caught using traditional feather / tinsel lure methods and usually are plentiful in deeper waters over wrecks.

If the skipper has live sandeel, that's also a good bait to use in place of the eddystone eel. (more realistic I guess)

Hi, went out with Shande the last bank holiday it was hard work only a couple of pollock and a few cod caught. We are in between the pollock leaving and the cod arriving, my friend had the same sort of day on Gemini 2 out of dartmouth. The hottest thing at the moment is the sidewinder sandeels on a 10 feet trace with swivel in the middle to avoid tangles i've used these for a while now and have good results with them even for bass.

I do have a couple of places available next Sat 23rd may from Exmouth if anyone's interested. Hopefully more cod will be showing.
