people.. myself.

weather.. fine,,

time.. 8am to 4ish.

tide..fully in fully out

bait.. sandell,lug,squidand mackeral

results.. flounder,dab,thorneback ray,turbot,,,

When i arrived at the mark it was fine and bright,, so set up my two penn rods and trusted biomaster.. first cast was just a lob as i reckon there could be bass on this mark,, about 5 min later first twitch of the rod tip a nice flounder on the bottom hook,,.the morning fished very well not stopping much pleanty of flounders and dab showing,, around mid way through the tide i loaded up one of the traces with mackeral on the bottom hook and a sandell on top.. did not lob this one as i sent out into the horizen .. second rod was still fishing in close,, sat down to have a cup of coffee and relaxing when i notice the far rod had gone slack. maybe a ray so i struck into it and a nice heavey load it was on the bottom hook was a thorneback and on the top was a nice flounder,, as i was unhooking them my other rod went mad so i retrived it also another double hook up this time a dab and turbot,,, coffee was cold at this stage,, all but one of the fish was returned alive bar one of the flounders as it had swollwd the hook,,,, made myself a nice brew and glazed out a the big blue ocean again...... ps sorry but do not know how to put picture up. can anybody advise me.......

well done, sounds like a great session! I use http://www.shrinkpictures.com to resize the photo and then just add it to your report!

nice going lucky,some good fish there,were the flounder any size?

go into the menu on your camara,click on size,put it on 640+480,the pictures will download fine after that,new pictures will,you will have to downsize old pics
