session in cornwall , looe

[potts]

went on holiday to cornwall for a week and wanted to go sea fishing.
i originally wanted to do some shark fishing because looe is the headquarters of gb skark fishing . but i found out the sessions were from 9:00 till 5:00. and its abit of a long time to be fishing if i was sea sick or didn't enjoy it.
so decided to go on the 4 hour reef fishing because it wasn't too long and there was a chance of a mixed bag of fish.

it was a good day we started off mackeral fishing for bait and got loads of them . we then put some of the mackeral on the hooks and first cast i had a male rass afew other people including my sister started getting poughting then i also started catching and we did get pleny we also got some female rass someone had a ling some people were also congar eel fishing but had no luck.

then with about an hour to go i was sick over the side of the boat so i rested for abit the fishing went abit quiet then people started catching poughting again wanted to get fishing again so i got up and withing 2 mins of getting up i was sick again so i decied to sit out for the rest of the session but i didn't mind i had caught plenty of fish .

for the last 5 mins my dad had a go with the conder rod and managed to get a small congar eel which suprisingly to what i have seen on tv didn't fight at all.

all in all a decent days fishing everyone caught plenty of fish . and i am glad i did it. ;D

i will put some pics on as soon as i get them developed.
