Sluice lads on fire for an evening trip aboard Sweet William

We had another incredible run out yesterday evening with the Sluice lads.

We again had minimal wind, flat seas and warm temperatures.

The mackerel were in abundance for both bait, and sport, early in the evening, with a good number of pan sized codling coming aboard at the same time.

Once we'd warmed up, with the wind dropping to 3 knts, we headed out to a few wrecks; we steadily picked up some decent codling and pollack until the last wreck of the evening.

At this point, we were enjoying an incredible sunset and as the light faded, we flicked on the rear, decklights and both sidelights, and an enormous shoal of coalies and mackerel began to circle directly under the boat filling the 42 metre water table from surface to seabed. It was perfect for an insane frenzy for some sport before a late steam home. Young Archie won the substantial sweep with the most fish of the night.

Massive thanks to the lads for organising another cracker of a night and hope everyone enjoyed themselves.
