Duration:4-30pm-9-30pm
Tide:falling
Weather:ok to start, miserable later with gale force wind and sleety rain.
Bait:lug,mack squid
Rigs:flappers
Results:Bass, whiting, coalie
Report:I tried a mark in brittas bay for Bass
, and was successful getting 4 bass, but all were schoolies, largest around 20 cms. I also got 4 whiting. John Bunn got 4 bass also, including a double and a few whiting. . All were caught on lug tipped with squid. Fishface got a double of whiting . He also got a nice coalie of 37cms at distance on a wishbone rig. . Started to rain heavily and the wind strenghtened which made things messy and difficult with sand getting everywhere 
. Highlight of the night was fishface modelling his new imax 2 piece floatie suit which is the business. I tried it on and must say it was very warm and comfy with lots of room to move about. My own jacket let the rain in later on with my back and arms getting damp 
,,, but my fingers were toasty with my new neoprene gloves 
. . The two boys left about a half hour before me ,then i got another bass which was what kept me there longer but i left as i could hardly hold the rod in the air with the wind 
. All in all not a bad night with a few fish being caught, which although small, at least they show that things might be looking up for the future, though i did hear that trawlers are coming very close to shore near wicklow 
. Some bait leftover gives me an excuse to get out, so who knows where i'll end up tomorrow night depending on the weather 
.
looks like a floatie suit will be next on your shopping list. excellent report and pics as always
