Report:

fished this mark in the hope of some conger action but alas they didnt show, have had them to 18lbs here so unsure why they were quite today. had 2 dogs on the conger baits, 1 just under speciman at 2.85lbs. fished shads and float fished lug while waiting for bits on the heavy rods. pollack were a little temprimental, coming in dribs and drabs but did end up with 5, all over the 4lbs mark, good fun on a 30 gram baitcaster and 15lb braid.

had the wrasse on floatfished lug. 4 were about the 1.5-2lb mark, with one just under speciman @ 4.5lbs. brilliant fight off him though, puts the pollack to shame.
