Report:
another lovely day by the sea picking weed and dodging rain. we hit a nice flurry o' flound from the word go with a few reasonable size ones which is always nice to see. fish were coming to baits fished close. JD had 2 weevers which he used to inform the swimmers(that were ruining his bass fishing) the dangers of - they thanked him and left! everyones a winner. the flounder fishing began to tail off with only the odd small fish showing occasionally. JD went out with a clipped rig and hit a dog first chuck, dropping one on his next cast. i contemplated walking into the sea but i wasn't strong enough to force my way out through the surf. i really need to start working out and stop eating chicken skin for dinner. changed to the zippy to pass the time and fired out some baits as far as i could thinking it wouldn't take long before the dogs started mooching my eels.well it did. no such luck. i got one on the next cast so stuck at it only taking a loner dab on my last cast far. i finished up with a small bass and John had a dab to add to the mix too. i have missed the doggy plagues this summer :cry: no pictures as we didn't have a chance to put our make up on today as JD was in a hurry to get out :|
