People- Me, Kenny, Rosco
Bait- Ragworm, Mack
Rigs- Wishbone, 2 hook flappers and pulleys
Duration- 4 hours
Results- me; 2 doggies, 1 huss, 2 flounder
kenny; 2 flounder
rosco; 4 coalie, 5 codling 2 pollack ( all caught with a spinner!!!!!!!)

Good night so headed up the coast for a bit of bait fishing as we have been doing a lot of spinning recently, the crabs where the first things to show any interest in our bait and this was winding me up no end :evil: , anyhow a few minutes into the session both me and kenny where bringing in small flounder. As it started to get dark there where quite a few fish jumping clear of the water and taking flies i assume no further out than 20 yards, I thought they might be sea trout and Rosco quickly got his spinning rod set up and he was into a fish first cast it was a coalie, he then proceeded to wipe the floor with us as he pulled in fish after fish on the spinner, I found it hard to believe the ammount of codling he was getting :oops: while my rod just sat motionless apart from the few crab nibbles. As soon as it was dark roscos luck ran out and the dogs started to show, I also had a small huss just before we packed up. By the way watch out for the rats along that beach theyre like cats :!:

Nice session. They sound like huge rate alright- if the fishing goes slack you could always bait up a hook and try rat catching.... :lol:
