Report:Decided to put the leg through a test after last weeks fall.Hit my fav beach to be greeted with a cracking surf,high hopes of success but after a few fruitless hrs and the tripod blowing over 3 times :twisted: :twisted: ,i had enough as i was putting my first rod away saw a knock on the rod still in water,a rockling yipee no blank. :roll: :roll:
Not much else to report just overall dissapointment given the surf.It did get really wild after 7 so i was glad to get home and have a nice cuppa and the leg passed its fitness test :D :D .Now for tommorow loads of lug to drown,bring it on.
Tight lines.

Well done for sticking it out Marlinman. I and a mate went to Killiney and it was a bit wild all right. It got brass monkeys afetr a while and then the rain came in. We had good fresh lug and there was a decent surf but spent 2 hours feeding the fish and couldn't see or feel the bites. Sad to say we blanked. A decision was made to have a quiet pint in the local and call it a night.
