Report:
nice to get a good session off one of the beaches as my last 4 have resulted in 2 blanks and 2 with single coalies as the only catch. lovely night to be out without a cloud in the sky and a blanket of stars. had hoped to get a few flatties but they didnt seem active so i had to be content with coalies,....the beach seem paved with them with most casts resulting in doubles. think i only had 1 cast return untouched. was nice to get the bass, my first of the year and a nice 48 cm fish that was in great condition with a well fed belly...good to see it only lip hooked so it went back without too much excitment

8) Nice to get your frist bass of the year :D

Nice fishing Neil an well done on the first Bass.... I'll have to wait a little while for mine...... :D
