People:me and my father

Duration:15.00-20.30

Tide:high-18.30

Weather:dull/moderate wind s/se

Bait:crab,rag ,lug ,squid, mack, mussels

Rigs:2 hook pats clipped

Results:5 flounder,6 coalies,1 codling, 1plaice.


Report:all fish came during dark , beware a lobster stock pot about 50 yds offshore smack bang in the midde of this mark, left by some halfwit, its now about 20yds out as i nearly landed it before my line parted. in the back wash at the edge of the rocks.
the position of pot wouldn;t have been so bad if it didn;t have 40ft of slack rope drifting about in tide during dark

alrite

i was the random guy that stopped off for an hour or 2 lol was meant to go surfing but lack of decent waves meant i could give the fishing a go up that direction. think i was talking to your dad!

glad to hear you ended up getting a few ill hopefully give another go in a week or 2 :D

hi phil ,
was using cocktails made up of all the above baits,but lug,mussels and crab stood out, although the plaice fell to rag.
