[b]Report[started at 8,nice surf,was using a 2 hook long snood flapper,lug on top and crab on bottom,short casts.i was confident of a bass (lost a nice fish night before,blasted weed fowled my line well thats the excuse)first few casts caught few coaly,at about 9.30 the rod tip took a plunge definitely not a coaly,picked up the rod retrieved the slack and connected,felt the weight taught to myself decent fish,it tried bolting to right around rocks so i bullied it back,i started walking back up the beach to avoid shock leader knot jamming the top eye with weed, (like night before)]:managed to beach it, quickly scattered down and to my delight a double hook up of two 45 cm bass twins,a first for me,well chuffed!!fished on till 2am picked up few more coaly,1 flounder,and 3 surprising codling(surprising for the beach!!)all and all not bad result considering the cold.
