Location : Carlisle Pier
Tide : low water up
Bait: lug mackerel squid
Result : dogs and Coalies.
With winds around d 4-5 southerlies yesterday I decided to try fish Carlisle pier as I haven't been there in years . Hell of a walk down. Lots of thorns but if you wore some thick pants wouldn't be too bad . Ground is incredibly slippy so do not try in anything other then boots.
Fished into darkness. No fish when the sun was up.
Got 2 dogs on mackerel and coalies on everything.
Had one rod out scratching but just kept getting coalie biggest maybe a pound and a half.
One rod out looking for ray and only got 2 dogs .
Baits where being destroyed by coalies. Could see the tip bouncing away but wasn't able to hook any After that happened 3/4 times I gave up . Wasn't sitting there feeding the piranahs any more.
Has anyone fished Carlisle from the shore in the last few months? Any results.
