People: me and mate (met biglaim and hairyconger and merv i think too lol)
Duration: 22:30 to 04:00
Tide:low and up
Weather:calm, light winds, very clear night not overly vold
Bait: mackrel, squid, crab, lug (cheers liam)
Rigs: 2 hook flapper, pulley, running ledger
Results:20 odd coalie, 5 codling and a dab
Catch and Release:: Yes
Report: headed up to the pier after my mate finished work. arrived to find big laim,hairy,and merv fishing with another crowd fishing beside them too. thinking too many people we headed off to the other 2 piers only to find they were missing 1 vital ingredient, WATER!!!! lol tide was very very low, other 2 piers had no water in them and round the front were lots of rocks so went to back to the big pier.
managed to set up and squeeze in. all fish were small except (hardly big though lol) and coalie and codling about 35cm and the dab was maybe 20-25cm
used the big rods out about 40yds, bites as it literally hit the water so baits didnt last long.
ended up using a 7ft super light spin rod wit 1oz running ledger and slowly bring it in across the bottom, this was good fun with the light tackle and took the better fish.
