Report:went down to this spot to use up the last of my bait from Newcastle, hadint heard any reports but thought there would be something knocking about... but... i was wrong, i cudint even manage to use up the bait i had left as it was coming back untouched on each retrieve :roll: , conditions looked ok, i had several baits and rigs, one rod out far, one in close, nothing worked.. first blank in a while and was disapointed as this spot looked like a decent rock mark, maybe i got it on a bad day.
