Report:got a call from good friend bernard for a last minute session ,be his last in a while as he be a daddy soon 8) id only frozen bait so a quick call to the lads in the q and a section of this site and we sorted for lovely fat lug in waterford, thanks lads :D arrived at the mark in waterford at 13.30 and set up 3 rods with different rigs and baits , bern was straight into the fish with 3 codling in two casts, i got snagged first cast and rapidly tied on new shockleader and rig and back out in no time and was rewarded with two fine fat codling at 1.3/4 lbs ,pics took and backin they went,these were to be best codling of the day with smaller lads to follow all day, changed rigs to flappers 2up 1 down to target a few flatties as well and had some nice flounder and dabs, had a break for tea and reviewing the photos realised the camera was full from christening two weeks ago, all the photos took of fish were non existent doh!!!!!!,carried on anyway with whiting comin on the feed and have to say busiest session in a long long time with fish every cast :D got a few pics and my last cast produced 4 fish on a 3 hook flapper, greedy little whitings gob was welded to the attractor with a bit of lug on it :P had a job to get him let go , what a way to end a magnificent day, several creamy pints were consumed afterwards, sittin by the fire in the local,havin a good run of luck lately hope it keeps up,ahh what a lovely day :D :D
