rockling and flounder, 6/2
Mon Feb 07, 2011 1:02 am
People:me
Duration:5 hours
Tide:
Weather:nice
Bait:lug, mack, crab
Rigs:3 hook flappers, 2 hook clipped
Results: 11 rockling, 10 flounder, 1 whiteing
Report:Fished tonight for five hours, it was very mild and calm but still a big surf coming in from last night. I only had two flounder after two hours but once the tide turned i was getting doubles and trebles of rockling and flounder on every cast. The flounder were small, mostly in the low twentys but some of the rockling were big enough some of them up near thirty cms.

i can't ever recall an explosion in the 5 bearded rockling population like we've seen so far this year. 
those wee guys seem to be turning up all over the coast at the moment. great to get plenty of action in. nice one

Well done on the session mate, seems like it was pay back for the crap session use had to put up with on Saturday!
It's a shame you didn't get a big fish but lots off doubles and triples must off made up for it
