People:Myself

Duration:3hrs

Tide:2hrs before 1hr after

Weather:Fair

Bait:Lures all sorts

Rigs:lures

Results:1 mackerel




Report: Headed down to the point and set up on a nice little edge under the lighthouse. Quite a strong wind coming from behind me so was a good advantage for casting the lighter lures out further. Only went with the spinning rod so not to bulk myself up carrying rods. Got 1 mackerel fairly early on in the session and a good size one too.
Thought my luck was going to change here but unfortunately that was the lot for the session.

Lost 4 lures during the session but its to be expected. One of the spoons i lost ive had since i was 7yrs old ...but hey only a lure. Only other problem was i put a hole in my neoprene waders climbing down the rocks so got to try and find somewhere to get a repair for them ....otherwise i may be skinny dipping on next session lol

bad luck on the waders, but you can fix them yourself, depending on the size that is.... there is a glue you can buy from most tackle shops.
