People: Myself and Johny
Duration: 2pm-5pm
Tide: Rising
Weather: very windy and overcast
Bait: mackerel and squid
Rigs: 3 hook flappers and cliped down patn
Results: about 40 whiting, 15 coalies, poor-cod, pouting, 2 mackerel, 3 mega crabs and 3 seals.
Catch and Release:: Yes/No Yes, all but the 2 mackies.
Report: Got to skerries to do a spot of rockfishing but it was too windy so we headed for the pier for shelter. We had caught fish from the very first cast and the action got faster as the day went on. All the fish were quite small with the biggest in the 3/4 Ib range. All caught on mackerel strip tiped with squid. It was great fun apart from the lack of bigger stamp of fish. we lost track of the exact qty of fish.
The seals were really annoying and we had 3 seals take fish on the way in, the rod doubled over and we had a fight on for 20 seconds which was an experience.
All in all, a fun day was had.
