Outfished!

Another trip out from Lepe and this time I was out-fished. It was another nice day so Tim and I set out for a deep water mark off Lepe which, on our last outing produced a variety of fish. We were hoping for some early cod but all was quiet apart from the tide that started ripping away and making life a little uncomfortable. So, we decided to move to shallow water and where the tide was less of a problem. I struggled getting my anchor and was saved by the weak link. Tim wasn't so lucky and had to sacrifice his anchor and cut himself free. Something to remember here, if it says no anchoring on the chart it is for good reason, cables were the reason on this instance.
We headed for the shallows around Beaulieu river and anchored shallow but allowed ourselves to drift over some deeper areas. I caught three tiny Bass, Tim on the other hand not only caught more but some were a lot bigger. I had to be content with some nice photos of a beautiful sunset.

A beautiful evening.

End of day.
