| 40 smoothounds - My little report Lady Helen Forum meet 3.00 am and the alarm kicks in to life , with one eye open I stumbled around the house and get the rest of the guys up . With a quick coffee it was time to hit the road and head for Penarth for our 5.30am sail time on Lady Helen. Although we were tempted to hit the last hour of the local night club. Great drive down as strange as it sounds there were no other cars on the road With the hellos out of the way we steamed out and the anchor was set and out went the roads. Within about 30 seconds Dan was in to a fish !! ( this is the fasted hook up I can remember ) and had his first Smoothound in the net.  For the next hour smoothounds were coming left right and centre and Mike and Dan were running around like mad men. Dan and Shades  Niel wonder what to do next  So what was the tackle on the day ??? Tactics Up tiding – 8-10oz grip leads fished with 3 ft 40lb hook lengths / strong 0/4 hooks Down tiding – 1lb / 120z leads with 3 ft 40lb hook lengths / strong 0/4 hooks Bait Peeler crab / squid and prawns The bait that seemed to give the edge was peeler / prawn Peeler crab and Prawns cocktail  The fish did not stop with a steady stream of smoothounds all day . You looking at me  Shade playing a smoothound  Lots of PB and here is Dans  Some lovely little tope were also taken that shows that the adults had a good spawn It was great ( about 40 smoothounds ) to meet everyone and just chill / fish that’s what I call a great day  Heres to the next meet __________________ Richard|Sea Fishing |Carp Fishing| Spud Gun | Zander fishing | Fishing Reports | Hunting Reports Last edited by Fishing Forum Admin; 08-09-2006 at 08:39 AM.     |

 Re: 40 smoothounds - My little report Cracking session there chaps. Think i'm going to have to dust off the boat tackle & give mike a ring. Well done Mike & Lady Helen. PS Glad to see evidence of the beer cans, I was beginning to think I was on the wrong Forum.  __________________ Don't Judge My Path If You Haven't Walked My Journey... |
