Greystones 2-8-10

People:me
Duration:3pm-8pm
Tide:HW 16:58
Weather:cloudy, dry, calm
Bait:rag,lug
Rigs:flappers and mini rigs
Results:4 pollock, 1 codling, 4 corkwing wrasse
Report:Set up at the rocks in Greystones in between 2 sets of anglers, one pair of lads feathering for macks on one side and a lad baitfishing on my other side. No crossed lines which is always a bonus. Fished 2 rods, one in close and one at distance. All fish were caught on the small rod in close,the other rod was just for show I think
. First up was a small female corkwing wrasse, followed by a larger male. Next was a small pollock. All were thumps of bites from the wrasse. A different type of bite,sneakier almost, came from a pollock of about a pound, which tore all around the rocks below me. I got another 2 pollock of this size and a decent corkwing before the fishing died off after high water. The next 2 hours were fruitless , till I got a small codling and another corkwing and called it a day. Nice relaxing few hours which kept my mind off all the stuff which arrived this morning from IKEA which I have now got to figure out how to put together 
. As I was leaving the boys in blue arrived and searched the rocks on the other side of the Cove. They left with a pair of runners. Hopefully all's well and there's no one missing.

Water clarity was good ,,,,,,,,,I had polarised glasses on and could see the fish darting around from above, but there was a slight breeze which made it top shimmer.
