Tide:high 20.41 4.9m

Weather:windy with heavy showers

Bait:lug,white rag,mackerel,limpets

Rigs:various

Results:1 ballen wrasse,6 pollack




Report:I went to the pier first and met a angler fishing there he hadn't had much luck after a few hours of fishing,the water looked very brown from all the fresh water flowing down from the mountain so I headed off to find a rock mark,it was hard to find a spot that was well away from the big swells finely found a safe spot and set up,wasn't long before I got a ballen wrasse then it went quite until near dark when I got the pollack
sorry no photos as the phone died as i was starting the session
