Probably a bit late now but there was a week of competitions in the area that never produced a lot of fish. There are fish around but they are hard work. You will find conger close in. Plenty of pollack but smallish, as for other stuff as I said the comp results were not that encouraging. Mackerel are sporadic but I saw a lot of gannets last night around two hundred yards off shore so if the wind doesnt pick up too much you should be ok this evening, big tide just before sunset is usually a favourable combination.
