I'll let the lads add their own tuppence worth, but there were plenty of dogs around especially once we hit dusk. I caugt the bass early close in to lug on a flappers. The smut hit a large crab bait on a pennel pulley, flattening my tripod as it did so.

Been a while since I used a multiplier from the beach. I might give it a go soon, my beachcaster ringed for multiplier is ancient...
