There was no tide up there this week at all, its only starting to build there again today.


At least ye pulled some life out of the water.
And you got your wallet back!

yea little or no tide there last night maybe a meter of a change or so does it fish better when the tide is running mate

Yeah I find it does anyway.
With a big tide up there you can pick up virtualy any species with the right tactics.

Hannibal is the man !
Yeah you might get a late one alright.
Fresh peeler on a calm clear night with a high tide to match would see your odds upped.
