Great bit of fishing there frm, despite the lack of big fish you were kept busy and during daylight hours too, very encouraging, how did u you find the current coming up to high tide, was it hard to hold the bottom and what size weights were you using.

The current was slack enough, I was using6oz weights and they were holding in the bottom.
