People:Me

Duration:17:30-21:45

Tide:before and up until high tide.

Weather:Intermittent showers and Gales.

Bait:Peeler, Mac and Spinners

Rigs:1up 1down.

Results:1 conger and 1 pollock


Report:The gales(I hate the wind)made it very difficult, rods blowing around, hard to tell if they were bites or what. Caught small conger on crab tipped with mac, caught 1 pollock 1.5lb on spinner and lost another two with a few takes that came off immediatley.

I had actually went to flyfish for salmon on the Glen, but again the wind.

Fished at SJP tonight from high tide down for three hours. Spinning produced two pollock, one @ 2.5 lbs and one @ 5 lbs. Big mackeral shoals passed by but simply ignored lures. Huge shoals of midges too! Pity they didn't ignore me!
