[b]Report
was intending to fish a beach mark to day, but when we got there the surf was way to heavy. and with the wind getting stronger by the minute, we had to scrap the beach and look for somewhere more sheltered. stopped at about 1/2 a doz; spots but all were unfishable due to the weather. ( we were thinking safety ) so we drove on to another bit of coastline were i knew of a small cove that should at least give us a bit of of a chance. it worked out the right move, we got set up with two rods each. from the first cast it was all go with the doggie's, and an odd coalie every so ofen, all coalies were around the 3/4lb mark. then the mate said he was in again and he doesn't think its a doggie, he got it to the side but it had buried its self down into the kelp :twisted: i got myself down closer to the water and got hold of his leader and began pulling it up threw the kelp, a nice Huss of app; 7lb, the mate was well pleased for its the first one that he ever got........and he still hasn't shut up about it :lol: :lol: :lol: i had a sore head all the way home lessening to him :) :)
at the end up the weather got to bad, with the wind really starting to get up to very strong gusts, so we headed for home. it was a very wet and cold session ( for him ) :lol: but we enjoyed it all the same.......i had my floaty suit on so it didn't bother me, but all he had was a light coat :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: he was that cold his teeth were going like a type writer :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
