1 trip of 2015, North coast
Sat Jan 03, 2015 6:39 pm
People:me and 3 others
Duration:from 10pm until3.30am, the others stayed on for a while
Tide:dropping
Weather:windy and wet
Bait:everything in freezer
Rigs:size 1 clipped up(2hooks) and 3/0 pulleys
Results:got two small coalies, both took blacklug and mackerel
Report:not much to say, after the busy Christmas with work and family I was bursting to get out, got in touch with a mate and a date was set, well the day the wives said we could go. Anyhow we met up at the chosen venue but the wind was blowing a gale so my and his two friends suddjested a sheltered Mark further around the coast. So back in the motors and it was follow the leader time. When we got to the venue it had changed a bit since I was last there a few years ago, some shingle had gone nd the gulley was further out. With a dropping tide we set up with little hope but happy to be out fishing, few casts later someone landed a small codling, quiet after that until I got a wee coalie on a bit of black lug tipped with mackerel. We just fed the crabs after that so put on 3/0 penell rigs and blasted big baits out far, the result was a another coalie, just a cm bigger on a fillet of mackerel. Weed became a big problem after that so I packed up and then the mate landed a transparent whiteing. Left them to it but the tide was pushing the weed their way. They arrived back at the carpark as I was driving out, would have taken a photo but my phone wasn't waterproof, it was raining a lot but at least the wind didn't affect us too much. It was good to get out and I am already planning my next trip, fpo permission of course

Well, you got out and avoided the blank. Your report confirms that www doesn't mean world wide web, it means work, weather, wives, 3 conditions for going fishing.

Am surprised you even know how to put bait on a hook at this stage.

Your casting ability must be gone, after all your fishing in a wee hole now
