Was there myself today, never seen so much action in one place. There must have been 10,000 seagulls and terns in the area, along with at least 20 seals.


I even caught mackerel in the rapids up by the bridge at spanish arch, my first ever freshwater macks!

I'll get you some pics in the morning, meant to take a video today of catching fish under your feet but never got around to it.

Never got the pics in the end, was down on Sunday but didn't bother with the rod and with nobody else there fishing at the time there was nothing to take pictures of! Got one video of seagulls divebombing out in the distance but wasn't the best of quality on an iPhone.
