The third alderney trip of the year got off to bad start with none of the usual wrecks fishing on the way over to the island. The day was saved, not for the first time, by a good session at anchor on the congers. Day two saw only five of the anglers join the boat for turbot fishing but they were rewarded with 16 turbot for there efforts. Day three arrived with NE 5-6 winds and a day ashore for the anglers to share fishing stories over a pint or three. With not a lot on the wrecks on the way over we decided to go to a wreck well out of the way that we have never fished before. Our efforts again rewarded with exactly 50 cod to 24lb and a handful of nice pollack. Overall a well fished and enjoyable 4 days.
