DATE-12/5/09

BAIT-SPINNERS

RESULTS-2 POLLOCK,LOADS OF MACKERAL.................

REPORT-----

Not much really to say about this trip it was just such a lovely day in work and a shame to waste the good weather.I got to the mark around 6 and startin spinning over some kelp not much happened for a while then i managed a nice size pollock around the 45cm mark(blank saved :lol: :lol: ) so i continued to fish the same patch of water and managed another pollock around the 35cm mark.I then moved over the rocks to deeper water and tryed there for a while, every cast i was pulling mackeral after mackeral after mackeral so after roughly 2 and a bit hours mackeral bashing i decided it was home time as i hadnt eatin since noon(think my stomach thought my throat was cut :lol: )but all in all it was a good wee session considering it was not planned...........PS if anyone could tell me wat way i put my pictures up it would help alot as i cant seem to get them up. thanks bryan..............

i use "VSO Image Resizer" to sort the pics so they can be uploaded without hassle. its a free download and very easy to use. it just knocks about 95% off the size of the pic and it only takes a second. when done the pic is there twice and the resized one has the same name but has a [] after it
if you scroll down a little when putting a post up it has a "browse" button. click this and find where the pic is, click the resized pic and then hit "add this file".
putting them up baffled me for a while too but its pretty easy after you've done it once.

nice one bryan :P :P i'll have to chuck a few spinners into the box when we go out. i was up round that way on tuesday with the dog and spotted a few bass chasing sand eels just below the surface and of course i'd no rods or tackle :x :x but at least i know where they're feeding and at what state of tide they were at the mark at. :wink: must have a bash at them after the ban :wink:
