People: myself and eric
Duration: 9.45 - 12 midnight
Tide: turn and ebb
Weather: windy large enough swell
Bait: bad bluey, blacks, frozen mack, sandeel
Rigs: me 3 hook flapper, pulley, eric all sorts of contraptions!
Results: me 6 whiting, eric 2 dogs 9 whiting
Report: had bait and transport and decided on an impromptu session - someone had to get a headlight so we didnt get going for about an hour!
decided not to go to far in the end - sea was far rougher than i was expecting
whiting were taking the bluey no prob and erics mack and sandeel
eric had a couple of pulls and got a dog
another missed one or two - then more whiting
then another dog for him
few more whiting - no chance of a flat as the whiting were on it fast
fair play to eric on the dogs and numbers
all the same id say i had the biggest whiting
:wink:
good craic was tired and headed home - another blank averted - but lost the anti-reverse wind on my reel - heres to more awkward angling :lol:

rotten blueys are always far superior to " not thrown up on the rocks by the swell, but actually left behind by another angler " sandeel
:lol:

Had you 2 lost my number :?: :?: :?:
Or just too scared of the competition :wink:
Welldone on the quanity, if not the quality, of the fish.
I've been there 3 times this last 4/5 weeks without a single whiting and plenty of flats, strange that :roll: :?

on the rocks to the right of the bay as you face the sea
was a last minute thing i should have called you but hadnt a clue what we were doing or where we were going until 9!
the whiting came on with the darkness as they did the last time i was there

Never fished that side, is the ground fairly clean :?:
I'll have to give it a go next time I'm down that way :idea:

its not too clean especially as you go inwards in the bay - 30 yards out or so and your on sand no problem
main thing is getting gear up rocks, weed and gulleys at the end of the retrieve
if your casting back into the bay you are going to need rotten bottoms and single hooks as the weed is very healthy :lol:
