Enerielly South Beach 17-8-2010

People:My son and I

Duration:4 - 5 hours

Tide: Rising over the top and an hour or so down

Weather: Calm

Bait: Peeler, Rag

Rigs: Pulley's

Results: 2 smuts and a handful of dabs

Report: Decided on a trip out to Enerielly as the weather conditions/tides were just about perfect for smoothies. Arrived at the beach about 9pm and quickly set up, although the baits were in the water for about an hour befor the first bites came. Conor was in with the first fish, a plump dab, followed by a few more to the rag tipped with squid. About 11pm my crab rob bent double and line was taken as the first smut made off with the peeler. After a spirited scrap a nice smut was mine. I missed 2 more bites, then had another, one my second rod, that could have come from the same mould as the first the only exception being this was a common, the first being a starry.

As the tide started to drop, the bites tailed off so we decided to pack up and head home for some much needed sleep. On another note, we were also treated to a wonderful display of meteors (shooting stars to the laymen amongst you ) from the Perseid Meteor Shower. A sight to behold indeed.

a meteor is an object outside the atmosphere a meteoroid is a shooting star a Meteorite survives its passage through the atmosphere and impact with the ground nice fishing

Nice fishing. Was down there a few days earlier hoping for a few and to catch the meteor shower. Conditions were bad for both

And seeing as we're being pedantic, your definition is back to front Gitsea. I'd still enjoy it if it were called a porridge storm

no it isn't

A meteoroid is a suggested term for a sand- to boulder-sized particle of debris in the Solar System. The visible path of a meteoroid that enters Earth's (or another body's) atmosphere is called a meteor, or colloquially a shooting star or falling star. If a meteoroid reaches the ground and survives impact, then it is called a meteorite. Many meteors appearing seconds or minutes apart are called a meteor shower. The root word meteor comes from the Greek meteōros, meaning "high in the air".

Thx Wikipedia
