Results:2 LSDs...........................................Oh yeah, My first 2 bass of the season also
Report:Wasnt much surf breaking when I set up despite the breeze. Decided to give it a lash anyway, set up directly in front of the carpark with 2 hook flappers on both rods, 1 fished 40 yards, the other at 100. It was at least an hour and a half before I got a bite, reeled in the first LSD of the year (ill never be as pleased to see one!!) taken on crab at range. This was shortly followed soon after by another, again on crab. Whilst being occupied by the doggie action (ooer...!) I had ignored the rod fishing short. I noticed line was running off up to the right so tightened up and struck, a couple of minutes later there was a lovely bar of silver at my feet, stuck him on the scale, he went to 2lb 14 oz and slipped him back. 3/4s of an hour passed with me missing two clonking bites on a whole peeler I had sent out before the rod fished short started bouncing around again. Bass no 2 made his appearance, coming in at 3lb even, again slipped back.
Both Bass were taken on Razor, both LSDs were taken on Peeler, Rag and sandeel went unnoticed and untouched. Wonderful evenings fishing, the breeze calmed down soon after it got dark and the moon came out, not a being to be seen anywhere, super stuff. Highly delighted with the Bass captures
