It may have been colder than the Baltic, but last week’s cold spell gave nice calm conditions at sea. One skipper who took advantage was John Fleming, who assembled an eager crew for one last trip of 2022. After a cold start, they enjoyed a great day at sea. Fishing was good before the tide turned. It slackened a bit after low water, but they they still caught a few more nice pollack before heading for home.
