Report:
Just back from honeymoon and had a few extra days off to ease back in to real life

Said good luck to the missus I'm going to wexford! Dug bait on sunday & got my crab off Dave and away i went happy as larry. Rick dumped me on monday morning, as he was going to see Sex & the city with some young one or something (think he even got some elbow boob action

)
Anyway, I wasn't overly hopeful when I arrived at the mark with bright sunshine and calm conditions, but first cast I had a dog on my distance rod and a flat in close!! The dogs kept obliging out far and mixed in with a few codling up to about 2lbs. I was really hoping for a hound but didn't get a run until nearly midnight, tip went over slowly and didn't spring back just kept arching, happy days, hit it and a cracking fight saw me land a 6.5lb smut, chuffed, i went for a celebratory scoop before closing!
Had plenty of bait left so decided to hit the same mark today, this time I was hoping for a cheeky bass so put some big baits close in, same again out far for the dogs and codling but very little action inclose. Eventually I had a stonking bite on the close in rod and hit into a cracking fish, unfortunately the snood chaffed & broke during the fight as I'd been casting into rocks, I was gutted as I'd say it was a serious fish, anyway, it was by far my best shore session this year, and good to see a few fish moving again.
