Adrian Nowotynski reports on a day out after Skate from Union Hall…

27 April: What a day out. The Wildlife was out in force with Dolphins, minke whales & and basking sharks in their dozens and a humpback whale feeding around the boat while we hauled at Skate. This 115lb male was first for Matt.

I hooked up soon after but lost it after 30 minutes. We had an earlier hook up which was Porbeagle like. Fast and unstoppable.

Apart from the fishing, there were hundreds of dolphins, easily 20-30 basking sharks, more Minke whales than I have ever seen. Every time we glanced at the water 1 or 2 would surface in any direction and a humpback feeding around us throughout the day.
