People:myself
Duration:18:00 to 22:30
Tide:high 18:04 4.8m
Weather:showers and strong wind
Bait:feathers,mackerel and sandeel
Rigs:feathers and 3 hook flapper
Results:1 pollack,2 coalfish
Report:arrived at the pier to see young lads diving off the top wall of the pier so had to look for a different mark,headed off to a rock mark I fished before but the swell was too high to fish it so I headed back to the pier and waited for the lads to finished
after a bit of a wait I got to the end of the pier and cast out 2 rods with sandeel and mackerel the bait was coming back untouched every time
i was joined by a load of different anglers during the session and every one was asking about mackerel,they all had a few cast and crossed my lines loads of times
and nearly got my ears pierced a few times as well,its time to avoid the pier until the mackerel go out again
things didn't look good when a hungry looking bertie landed on the pier and after I fed him most of my bait I had a few casts for mackerel as well but no bites so I put on a set of mini feathers on and got 2 small coalfish to save the blank
on my way home I stopped to have a few cast at the rock mark I looked at earlier and caught 1 pollack
