Report:
Got to the pier around 1am after a long drive straight from work, only 2 other guys there fishing and they left around 2am so had the place to myself ( not many fish about either :lol: ) plagued by small dabs and flounder on the rag,very hard to hit managed about a dozen tried changing to squid on both rods but still only got little taps, and yet Wednesday the codling was mad for squid and sandeel. come 6 am sky clouded over and a bit of a breeze caught a couple of whiting followed by a fish i ain't yet i.d ed ( new to this see :roll: )then a couple of nice codling on the sandeel, by 7am the sandman had paid me a visit and the old eyeballs were rolling, so called it a day.

Sounds like a good little session to me :D :D :D

Micky,

Sounds like you had a good Night or Morning whatever it was and fair play to you for heading out straight after work. Your effort was repaid. Did you get a picture of the diamond shaped fish?

Hi Micky,

decent session on the pier - It has served me well over the years too.

You might find this site a help for ID-ing the fish http://web.ukonline.co.uk/aquarium/index.html

I would hazard a guess at a John Dory (At least one of these was cuaght up there last year.

Check it out and let us know...

Nice fishing micky well done.
