Benone / Downhill 12/11/09

Fri Nov 13, 2009 7:19 pm

People:me & 2

Duration: 8.00pm-2.00am

Tide:Falling to Low and then rising

Weather:mild for nov, calm, very clear

Bait:King Rag, Mack, Lug and Squid

Rigs:3 flapper, pulley

Results:2lb turbot, 2 flounder, 2 dab but no Bass




Report: Arrived and setup in super quick time, conditions were good and spirits were high, Been talking about it for past few days and couldn't wait to see the knocks, all rods were out and within 15 mins i landed the first fish, :D sandly a very immature dab but "first fish wins" was in the bag, now i was going for the biggest! sadly that wasn't to happen when my mate landed the 2lb Turbot and then a flounder. Things were going well at this point and i was sure the odd big knock was def a Bass but nothing. Near to the end the 2nd Flounder was caught and the other dab.

All in all a good night but sadly the Bass will live to tell the tale.

a 2lb turbot is anice fish anytime and flounder and dabs are always welcome there are bigger and better fish than bass in the sea so dont feel too down about not catching one its 3 yrs since i caught one
