Weather: Overcast, light southerly, some light rain

Bait:
Dexter Wedge 28 grms.

Results:
2 Schoolies chased lure but turned away at last minute!

I had three rays a huss and loads of dogs down there Sunday over low.I didnt see as many bass as I usually do but the ones I did see looked bigger. I also landed a spider crab which is the first one I had seen down there.

Spent a few hours at Bridges of Ross with Hardbacks but only had one bite which I lost on the ledge infront.
The Truth is often stumbled upon by men, most of whom pick themselves up and hurry along as if nothing ever happened.
