ECR SAC MA#1, Toberpatrick, 5th Feb

Sun Feb 06, 2011 11:51 am

People:17 brave souls

Duration:5 - 9pm

Tide:rising

Weather:Gale force South Westerlay, horizontal rain

Bait:stacks of it

Rigs:The ones you read about in Sea Angler!

Results:2 flounder & plenty of disappointment!




Report:
Weather forecasters got it totally wrong. Fair play to all the lads who fished on in horrible conditions for very little reward, not a side word from anyone!

Brilliant win for Robbie (Trojan) in his first competition, also scooping longest flat pool, a tidy few quid won :wink:

yea john, i was using a diawa windcast, its a nice reel to use and a good cast but i wont be taking it out in them conditions again, too many little holes and gaps where the sand got in and mixed with the greese.
