Report:Hadint got a bit a of saltwater in me gills for a couple of months, didnt feel like travelin far so headed over to balscadden.The winter winds seemed to have blown some of the rubbish away!. was nice and quiet down there, 3 other chaps fishin. had a steady flow of fish coming in, good few species too , nothin big mind you. in total about 15-20 fish none above 20cm, one annoying thing was that its quite a drop to the water from the cliff top, any tiddlers caught dont take the drop to well and struggle on the surface just long enough to get picked up by a gull.most fish i returned got snapped up unfortuatley, 1r2 before they even hit the water. i was happy with 5 species in 4 hours. Might get a bit of rag and give split rock a bash this weekend.

Tip You can hang a small fish of your grip lead wire and put it back that way if you are above the water a bit... Well done on geting out..
