People:myself and shamoo

Duration:20.00-23.00

Tide: low 21.00

Weather:mild, wind picked up from NW last hour

Bait: mack for me, mark had rag, lug, sandeel and crab

Rigs: 1 hook pat, and 3 hook flapper

Results: mostly small whiting, micro dab, rockling

Report: wanted to try somewhere knew - litterally just crossed the railway line and set up near the back of the platform

whiting were on early - no size

after an hour mark got a rockling - there was also a fair bit of stringy weed about - the crabs were evident in numbers too

think i had about 5 or six whiting - annoying buggers the way they dont go back at times

mark probably had about 15-20 - on the last cast pulled in a dab probably 10cm or less

ive dropped to size 2s for the scratching out this side - but size 6s is desparation stuff :wink: :lol:

generally just getting tired of the whiting plague

what about a coalie to break it up - or god forbid a codling

3 hours was enough of it - but would like to try again over high water

Next time try to walk north towards Greystone; on Saturday I got some small bass and coalie. It supposed to be a good spot for codling.
