People:me

Duration:4 to 7

Tide:6ish

Weather:pleasant but very cold after dark,big surf

Bait:razor and lug

Rigs:2/o pulley rigs

Results:3 bass,2 coalies,2 flounder and 2 codling




Report:Decided to let deise land redeem itself,so gave it a lash.Big surf running ,deja vu ,loads of weed around in patches and lost my 1st 2 traces at distance,so moved along to another section and it was weed free .
Nothing until it got dark but managed to sneak a few bass all around 3lb and some small flounder upto hw.At this stage i was fishing from the cliffs as the tide pushed me off the beach.Once the tide started to ebb got a few strange knocks,could it be codling,not huge 2lb ish,but at least i now remember what they look like,incidently i got a second next cast same size and both fish very brown in colour and stuffed looking,nothing on the cod front after that apart from 2 tiny coalies after the tide was racing away from me.
Happy bunny again in comparison to yesterdays washout

Marlinman,

sounds just like the cod I were gettin - only smaller. I wonder, could it have been the same beach

Hi marlinman i taught you said that it would take you days to dry out the gear ????

fair play to you for going out

[beachbuddy]

Yip the waders were still soaked,but at least i had a few dry fleeces and cozy smock,if it had rained though .Shoreking in reply to the cod beach .Nice enough session allround and i will be back,now that i've a better understanding on whats on offer there,thanks to some very helpful info,you know who you are so thanks.Normally would only fish that part of the coast a few times a year but guess where i'll be going over the xmas hols for a few sessions.

Well done marlinman you've got to keep the faith!

[RockHunter]

Well done Mike, good session there.
You did better than me - on Saturday night I hit the East Cork beach where I have had a couple of good sessions recently - there was a good surf, a bit of weed but not too troublesome, but not a single bite, not even a nibble

Hi rockhunter,
hard lines with sat,big tide down there i'd say.Hopefully the reason for poor fishing is'nt what i was talking to you about last week.I have'nt heard anything regarding that subject from the powers that be,hopefully it will be ok
