Report:
De Brudder Mike had put some fresh mackerel in my fridge for the tea but I nicked them and went fishing! Well it was my fridge!
Lots of green weed made fishing difficult and the crabs were queuing up!
The ray ran with the bait and for a minute and I thought I had a Dicentrarchus Labrax! Whew!

Dicentrarchus Labrax!

smart baiting, nice fishing and clever posting

Well done there... same thing with me. My wife was wondering how come 2 pieces of mackerel are on separate plastic in the fridge....

I fished the morning tide, Ive never seen the bay like it. For most of the morning the water looked like a sheet of glass. Beautiful. It didnt help the fishing, the crabs were very active and I didnt see a single bite.

I did see some massive Mullet, cruising and Nymphing the surface, nothing close in though.

nice thornback,well done,lucky you didn't mention the b*** word as The Austrian said clever posting
bet mike wasn't too happy when he came home looking forward to his mackerel dinner

nice one on the thornie ross . the weed and crabs can be a right pain at times
