People: me fein

Duration: 5.30-7.45pm

Tide: high round 4.40

Weather: very calm, cool

Bait:lug mac, strip

Rigs: 3 hook flappers

Results: 2 flounder

Report: it was begining to feel like that scene out of trainspotting with the baby crawling upside down on the ceiling!

i had missed the tide - the venue doubtable - but i had to get out!

so i decided to go to the nearest mark to me for a short session

was happy out second cast - nice bite and a fat flounder at 28cm came in

was trying to hit the pools between the sand bars as thing quietened after that - and the tide rushing out - debated that i was only at it an hour and a bit so walked the gear out the 150 metres - set up again - questioning my judgement etc. as you do

couple of casts next thing the rod tip goes and another flounder 27cm but a far slimer specimen this time

happy out with the quick session and back home in time for dinner - fishing as it should be?

:D
