is 8 fish really that bad - or was it the weather coupled with the fact you were after something a lot bigger?

I beg to differ chaps.

Had a fish nearly every cast at the weekend. From small codling, dogs, pouting, flounder, whiting, smootie (smallest i've ever seen it was the lenght of my hand) Not bad at all.

I was there Fri nite and it was poor hardly any fish about, it was a tiny tide and flat calm and outgoing. its amazing what a bit of a bigger tide and some wind can do for the fishing. what part of the beach where you's fishing?

afraid not it makes the light bulb flash due to the fence having a pulse of electricity rather than a permanent current ,this could induce a disco atmosphere and would put the fish off feeding and set them onto the drink instead :lol: :lol: bit like an sai comp :idea:
