[Yak] Dale (Mackerel)

Dale 25/04/2010
Time: 11.00am to 3.30pm.
Tide: LW+1 to LW+5. Flood tide.
Weather: Cold & windy
Sea: Choppy out of the bay
Tackle & Bait: Feathers.
Fishing: One mackerel, and Phil caught dogfish.
Comments: After 3 weeks of sunshine today was the first cold, wet and windy day we've had, but went out anyway as we'd arranged it already. Was just an early venture out to see what was biting. Caught one mackerel over what I assume to be a wreck as there were divers around the area. Thought the pollock might be taking lures but nothing around. It was very cold and getting worse as the day went on. Nice to get out on the water though after the winter and hopefully the weather will improve quickly.
