Report:
woke up late in the morning and decided i might have a session down on one of the local beaches, my Dad kindly offered to drop me down

when i reached the beach it was barren with nobody in sight and the water crystal clear, i set up my first rod and placed it roughly 40-50 yards , i couldnt tell if there was a fish, with such high winds so i just left it for 15 mins , as i slowly reeled in my trace i had 2 flounder on, one 28cm and one 21cm Great Start!
i placed my fish in a nearby sandy rockpool.
i then set up another telescopic rod for the craic to see what it would produce , to my surprise i reeled in a flounder at 22cm Great fight on very light gear
then my other rod went about 17-18 mis later , i thought i had a clump of weed on but to my surpise it was a lovely flounder of 39cm , it took both my top hook and my lower and came in side ways which explained the weight
it went 'slack' for about 30 mins when the telescopic rod bent over and i had myself a wee turbot of 18 cm
i ended with another flounder of 34cm Happy out!
