red bay rock mark 12/12/10

People: me , jc & the ghost

Duration:14.00--1745

Tide:15.00

Weather:dry light s/e

Bait: white rag, lug , mack , sandeel

Rigs: flappers

Results: 27 dogs , 1 stray mackerel , 2 poor cod , 1 whiting, and 1 coalie


Report:we decided on a mark for a few cod that is usually a dog hot spot in summer , due to the ghosts advice that there would be no dogs about due to the cold weather and we should get thru to a few cod and guess what we were rewarded with double shots of dogs .
in daylight we were getting some crackin bites and ghost lost a crackin fish in the weed on the retrive before he got a double of dogs , i then also had a stonkin bite but no hook up and after baiting up i then got double dogs
jc had a nice coalie before he also got into the dogs , followed by a poor cod double shot and more dogs .
i then got a good sized mack on lug that gave a good account of its self over the weed , we all had a few more dogs coming onto dark and surprisingly the fishing died of with the dark and we decided to make tracks .
not a cod in sight and all ghostie cud catch was dogs after his preminition of a dog free day .

Sounds like a busy session anyway Predictions are a dangerous game, would have loved a few dogs last night myself though Good fishing.

spent two hours on a redbay rockmark myself today.... result: .... two dogs
had a few other bites but nothing else

Well you had busy time with the dogs anyway Rab, I got one dog today in Redbay, a codling which I'm sure was all of 5oz!!! 2 coley and a dab(closer to 5 grams).

You had a good session even if no codling.

Good result there. I'm amazed there are still mackeral around after the seriously cold spell! Must have hit a pack of those hounds!!

at least you had plenty of action with the dogs rab odd that it died off after dark was the water coloured up?

no al, water was crystal clear
