A Lovely Start to the 2007 Season
Monday, April 30th, 2007
With spring arriving early the Fleet has been the place to be this last few days, and I am pleased to say a lot of people agreed and came along on the boat trip.
We were in the water early enough this year to witness the last of the Mergansers and the first morning trips and the late afternoons have been the time to see the Fleet at its best as they have coincided with falling tides and emerging mud flats.
The bass have started running, early this year, and we are enjoying the Terns feeding activity on the fry and shrimp, pushed to the surface by the marauding fish.
The visibility in the water has not been great but we can confirm our ususal inhabitants are still there, the Snake lock anenomes and the Sea squirts. We were lucky enough to catch some orange sea squirts but they are still elusive.
Well it’s time to break out the sunscreen and get back to the boat to welcome you during this glorious spell of weather”.
