People:me
Duration:100minutes (approx)
Tide: rising
Weather:calm
Bait:mack and squid
Rigs:3 hook flapper / single hook clipped down
Results:see photo below
Report:
seeing as it was a calm day(first time in a long time) i decided to walk to on of the local beaches ans really put the zzippy profile to the test :)
cast out my other rod with a single hook clip down hen proceeded to wang a bit of lead to distance.. no idea where it went as it was getting dark but with the amount (or therefore lack of) line left on the reel i knew i was getting good distance, with little effort too :D :D
then clipped on a 3 hook flapper with mackerel tipped with squid (one cast before packing up) and managed to pull in a whiting and a shrimp :shock:
