| Hillhead Nailors comp Fished Nailors club comp with a few more anglers than recent comps. Obviously the main target was the Smuts and scratching about for whatever may come. Fished from 7pm with a strong westerly wind and alot of weed about and the first fish went to Justin with a palm sized Plaice. The sea was very coloured a with a big surf rolling but an hour before high tide Lee had a run on his live peeler  resulting in a 8lb9oz smutty After returning the fish i walked over to my rods and noticed a slack line so i reeled in and in till the fish was 10 yards out at it started to run up and down the shore  6lb on the button a PB for me That was it for a while with the odd spider taking hooks, Lee had a little knock and reeled in to find  A baby Thorny And that was that for the comp! Me Lee/Scotty/Lewism fished on i had a text from the wife that she had locked herself out Women eh? Driving along the M27 and Lee rings there back  This one went 7lb2oz Rushed myself back to Hillhead but there where no more to be had but a very strange night with no pesky Pout or Sholies So Lee won this comp with me as runner up other than the Plaice everyone else blanked but everyone fished hard Im happy i had my first smutty of the year after 2 blanks Could Lee's starry? and Thorny be added to his species and also this Wrasse that he caught last week at Chale I.O.W      |

| Re: Hillhead Nailors comp Well done guys, great to see some smutts being caught. That thorny looks kinda cute. Let's hope the smutt will show or us at Selsey next weekend __________________ There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind." - Washington Irving |
