Sept 9th 2012 – Skateraw (near Dunbar)
With the days getting shorter again you don’t have to be up that early to catch a sunrise, and it was exactly half past six when the inflatable was pumped up and ready to go, and I watched the sun climb above the horizon. This was a shortish trip targetting a few codling for the freezer, but the cool of the early morning soon wore off as I headed out past the power station, pausing only to pick up a few mackerel for bait.
It’d be wrong to describe the fishing as good, but it was much more productive than my last trip out of Dunbar, and I pulled in around 13 or 14 codling plus a couple of modest pollack. Nothing large, but several good sized eating fish and it was a satisfied customer that made his way back in to the beach at Skateraw.
