People:Me

Duration:19:00 - 21:00

Tide:HW 18:30

Weather:lovely, sunny and no wind

Bait:rag and mackeral

decided to head down to the beach and give it bash seeing as we had some great weather on monday. i hadnt been out in 3 weeks so i was dyning to get out a run and get fishing.

landed down to the beach and found that the water was as flat as a board. as i had rushed out i ended up forgetting my waders but seeing as the water was so calm it wouldnt require wading far - or so i thought! :lol:

just like that the water changed and the waves started hammering up the beach! ended up catching me out and near knocking my stand and rod over :lol: teach me for judging the sea :lol:

i also ended up forgetting my phone and had nothing to take any pics :x

ended up with 6 flounder, all around the 20cm mark which all took the rag worm, and all returned safely again to the sea. a nice evenings fishing an i met a few local fishermen all out walking the beach who stopped to chat and passed on some usefull info and tips for fishing the beach alot better.
