[b]Report
went out to see if there was any cod on the beach. first cast rods were bouncing dogs were brought in by the both of us. next cast i caught a nice flounder 36cm paul had a double shot of coalis one 26cm and the other 42cm. very next cast i got a savage bite had a bit of trouble to bring it in through the surf but a couple mins later i had a ray at my feet wingspan of 58cm brought the scales down to 9.47lb looked over at paul to see him fighting a good fish through the surf he beached a nice bass of 56 cm weighing in just under 5lb i could be a bit off with those numbers as i was more interested in my own fish no doubt he will correct me on it :lol: we both had coalis and dogs on every cast after that packed up and headed away before the chippie was closed
