Up in Aberdeen for a few days so packed a rod with the intention of targeting Turbot. I headed north after work tonight with some mackerel for bait to the Pirates Graveyard area, nice surf, incoming tide but lots of weed and thankfully some fish...two Turbo's and five Flounders. The best Turbot was 1pound 1oz not big by any stretch of the imagination but a welcome site as its zipped across the sand in the clear water. This is also a new club record as we don't seem to get too many down Ayrshire way or possibly not to date yet...
Will post a few pics od the Turbo when I get home.
We also had a club shore match last Sunday in Luce Bay despite favourable conditions the fishing was lousy. I managed to get lucky and catch the only Smut of the match(34 inches) to add to some Dog's. It provided a nice little russel on my light BTB amorphous rod. The Bass were strangely absent and Ian dropped a nice Huss estimated at 12 pounds. No pictures of my Smut which is a pity, it was raining heavily,I had a bitch of hangover and Jamie is still limping around. We gave it about five pounds and was the real point scorer that counted on the day with Dog's only worth 10 pts.
