Weather: North breeze, cloudy, dry, gentle sea
Bait:luminous krill imitation, jelly worm, shad, bronze toby, green crabs
Rigs: lead head for crabs
Results:over a dozen pollack to 3lb and 1 mack
Report:
Fished two marks
Started on mark 1 with luminous krill, unrivalled IMHO for finding out if there are fish about, got numerous pollack (but small). Switched to jelly worm to try for a bigger pollack, got a follow to the surface from a wrasse but no pollack.
Mark 2, Started with green crabs hooked on lead-head for wrasse, with polarised glasses I could see some small gunner showing an interest, but only got half hearted bites. Switched to toby, got plenty pollack, some not very small (good fights on my light tackle). As fish were clearly taking I decided to experiment and try a shad (storm wild eye 63g mack?/trout par design). Expected little from these, was giving up after about 15 casts with no bite, when I hooked and landed a 3lb pollack, very pleased with that.
Got a solitary mack on the toby at the end of the evening.
Good fun for a short time fishing

Hello Shamoo,
At the moment for me it seems almost always to be a choice between no fishing or getting out for a stolen hour here and there, so when the fish come out to play while I'm there that's me happy :D
