No joy here yesterday, good bait on good rigs sent out to where the water creases (just inside / on / just outside) and still nothing.

Nearly lost a rod to a jolly sailer (gobsh*te), and later a small boat angler anchored up on the crease directly infront of where we were fishing, you have to wonder :roll:

Some lovely person also had a Barry White down on the point, all in all a brutal session but weather was great. In future I’ll definitely be keeping to my less “popular” more out of the way marks.
