Got a couple hours in. Evening, Lecanvey pier.
Came to realise how poor shop bought rigs are, pulled in about 10 doggies lost 2 or 3 more to poor rigs (overtightened crimps and loose knots). Fished slack water and about 3.5 hours of the ebb. Just doggies but the bit of action was enough to satisfy.
