Fair play to ye for getting out, must be quiet enough down South at the minute.

Well done for getting a few fish - last night was not a nice night to be out.
But at least you made the effort to get out. I have had just one session this month due to the bad weather - and that only lasted 20 minutes before I gave up because of gale force wind, horizontal rain and a mass of weed on what had been forecast to be a dry relatively calm night!!!!!!!!

Ya the only good thing was that there was no weed and it ended there even the water was far too coloured too!!!

You did well to get anything in those conditions, the low numbers of reports on here at the moment is a good reflection of how bad the weather and fishing is just now.

how did I miss this report john :) I'm seeing it for the first time, it was good to get out, that 3B rockling no matter how small it was saved me from blanking but you had a decent night, conditions were shocking I still have a hearty cough to proof it. Conditions are better this weekend so fingers crossed.
