the mersey today 3-3-12

[robo]

locked out at 7 ish this morning, 3 on board, all the welsh charters have gone home only us and discovery in the lock what a difference a month makes when we had 9 charters locking out, the forecast was not brilliant and the cod have been missing for a few weeks so we where not expecting a lot and we where not wrong, very slow fishing we intended to go for skate then have a go for the earley place at low water,we could not get on the skate mark the sea was to rough and when we tried the place mark there was no run at all, the tide was only a 7 meter one, probably to small for decent fishing, we did have one skate about 7 to 8 pounds a coddling around 3 pounds a few flat ties and a couple of whiting not a great day but turned out nice when we where due to lock in the wind dropped to 20 knots the sky turned blue and the sun came out

I came out of hibernation this week and did 3 tide's ..east winds didn't even catch a sea fluke .. Robo's caught more than me ... the plan now is back into hibernation for another 2 month... Think of the money save in fuel
