Results:Neil 7 fish,( 1 tope, 2 whiting, 1 dab, 3 lsd ,hope thats correct!!), myself 6 fish ( 3 lsd, 1 dab, 2 whiting), JOHN BUNN 0 FISH (BLANKETY BLANK).
Report: Fished to the right as you enter the beach (as distinct from the left where we fished last week), but the bass still elude us

. Not to worry we had a good night with a few fish being caught (sorry John

). Neil was first off the mark with a decent whiting and as he had to wait till the last cast to catch last week, he left us in no doubt that this was to be his night

. The pressure was on myself and John but it was a couple of hours before I had a bite, another whiting. Blank saved and John was feeling the pressure now. I had a double of whiting and a dab, and then a doggie. Neil caught a small tope, only the second i'd seen, and I was hoping there were more out there but if there were they didnt bother with my bait. ( ok , i know it, i cant cast far enough

). John was in a tackle graveyard but no fish. We had plenty of bait, with rag, lug, mack ,squid, i even had sardines from Caterworld (too soft!), I put the head of a sardine on a 3/0 hook with a starlight pushed inside and cast out. I had a bite soon after and reeled in what seemed to be a big fish

. As I landed it I felt the fish release the bait

and when i inspected it he had bitten through the bait exposing the starlite. I reckon if I had put it on a pennel with a hook each end of the bait i would have hooked him , well who knows

. It was not to be Johns night and he packed up having to face a journey home with Neil rubbing salt in his wounds

. i stayed on a couple of hours and got a doggie and a whiting for my troubles

. Neil you never told me that the carpark was the local lovers lane

, dont know what they thought of me with my lamp and headlight shining through their car windows

. Not that i could see anything with the windows fogged up

.
Soap Box Moment,,,,,, why dont people take their rubbish home with them, there was even a tent left there full of beercans, food etc which the local tidy towns committee

had to dispose of,,, if you catch my drift,,,,,,, otherwise the next round of anglers would be reeling it in
