| Whiting ? Havent managed to get any whiting yet this year and fishing off the boat out of Penarth Ive heard its posisble to get them upto 4 pounds - any idea if this is true and any idea of where !! Do you need to go out a bit or do you get good sized ones inshore ? __________________ So near yet so far - Wembley 2008 - Zideered Right Up ! |

| Re: Whiting ? 4lb is a bit optimistic, have seen them up to about 1lb- 1 1/2lb. but last year we only caught 3 all winter, they didn't seem to come up this far. |

| In the mid 70's I was on a boat off Hartlepool,with some mates when Dicko hauled in a whitey of 5lb 10ozs .It was weighed on the Skippers scales,then knocked on the head for verification,photo,s publicity etc.He put it in a fish box on top of the cabin and seconds later there was a flapping sound then a splash.He had'nt hit it hard enough,and back to the depths it went. Hard to believe but true,it's not something you forget.I've never seen a whitey near it since and probably never will. ![]() __________________ 2 trips this year 0 blanks,7 whiting,1 flounder |
