new quay, clare, 03/05/08

#1 Post by corbyeire »

People: myself and mga1761

Duration: 15:00 - 19:00

Tide: high around 17:00

Weather: bright sunshine - warm breeze at start from the south - the wind picked up and then the clouds came

Bait: frozen: lug sandeel mack squid

Rigs: 3 hook flappers pulleys pats

Results: 1 spider crab :?


Report: arrived at the mark with the terns hitting the water every so often - was thinking great some food about

however the crabs were in super form, stripping the baits in 5 mins - this continued until after HT and then eased

thinking the baits had a chance stayed on for a while on the ebb - but then the loose weed kicked in

conditions seemed great but no joy

oh well the blanks are in the ascendancy again

:(

good to clock heads with martin - things can only get better :D

Good to get out, especially with the sun shinin' 8)
Did manage to christen the 525 and the Century Carbon Metal - nice combo, even though I blanked :cry:

Looking forward to catchin' some fish on 'em eventually :wink:

Good to meet up Brian (thought your luck might have changed after I left!!)
