EAST CORK BEACH 11-DEC-2007

#1 Post by lumpy »

People:me

Duration:1400-1930

Tide:hw @ 1815

Weather:strong sw f5/6

Bait:frozen crab, fresh lug, party squid, razor

Rigs:2/0 pulleys

Results:1 2lb cod (49CM)




Report:

decided to hit the east crok beaches as all this talk of cod was getting too much for me. arrived well before hw in broad daylight as i hadnt fished this beach before and wanted to get my bearings. fishing was very quite for the first 3 hours with no bites and enough weed but not so much as to make it difficult to fish. as hw approached the wind picked up as did the surf. about half an hour after hw i got a very good bite and big slack liner which resulted in the only cod of the day, taken on a double crab bait. next cast with lug and razor resulted in a missed bite. fished on for an hour without a bite before calling it a day and heading to KFC :lol:

That's a nice cod. I'm heading back down there tomorrow evening. If you're fishing there I'll keep on eye out for you.

cheers pete, you definately picked the wrong year to move south last year, fishing is much better this year. guess the weather has just been much better. might give the bass a bash tomorro night if the wind holds..
