The Graveyard, Co Down 20/04/10

#1 Post by Drew »

People: Dan and Drew

Duration: Fishing 8.30pm til 10pm

Tide: Dropping

Weather: Freezin cold, breezy

Bait: Lugworm and Mackeral

Rigs: Loop, Flapper

Results: 1 LS Sea Scorpion, 1 Shore Rockling

Report:

Believe this is going to be a LW venue as u seen to be hitting the fish at distance most of the time. We dug our bait, and started fishing at around 8.30pm, as soon as the light faded a bit Jammy Dan brought in a small LS Sea Scorpion.

Waiting for bites I was looking up the beach when I saw an Otter crashing into the water, it bobbed about a bit then headed on out to sea.

I thought sure I was going to blank on this session, but on the last cast I managed a Shore Rockling on Lug so we called it evens and headed home. Can't wait for the next chance to explore more of this mark! 8)
