Downhill a no go

#1 Post by nicki d »

drove down to see the conditions of the beach after the wind and rain to find that the river that ran along the side of the slip way and out to sea has now moved it's path to running down the slip way and now washed all the sand from in front of the slip and making a wall so you can't drive onto the beach.
Just putting this up incase someone drives down in the dark a bit to fast.

Good few fishing on it last night but all driving 4x4's to get on to the beach over the dunes. Very little caught, fierce cold. Only fish of note I heard of was small bass caught by man from Limavady. We stuck it out until 11.30 before the cold got the better of me.
