People myself

Duration 11am to 1.00pm

Tide rising

Weather freezing,rain,too windy

Bait mac: strips

Rigs one hook on running lead

Results 3 flounder/2 seatrout




Report went to fish the last hours of the rising tide, was very hard to see the bites cos the wind was so strong. after an hours fishing i got two small flounder, a short time later i got a massive pull on the rod witch pulled the tripod clean over, i grabbed the rod and lifted into a nice seatrout of about 46cm on the next cast got another seatrout of about 35cm then it all went quiet. the rain started again and it got so cold that i packed up the gear and found that there was another flounder on my rod, i did not even see the bites. so i headed for home to get a heat, sorry no pic's rain was belting down so would not chance the camera + my hands were pure num!!!
