Been very quite, Ola 2011!

I fished the Loch Sunart shark tagathon in November, good craic, poor fishing two years back to back for me I'm afraid. I will be giving it a miss this year

I had a shot for Cod on the east coast in December, couple of fish good day out.

Tried again in January in the first club match of the year. Calm and clear conditions with the worst possible wind direction did not fill me with confidence. I managed these fish and added another three to end on eight, second in the match to a six fish bag. I was pretty pleased given it looked like a long and uneventful night lay ahead, you just never know sometimes...
