Report
me and thomas meet up with tom cathal and wee dilan at the fort, we got all our gear down to the mark, thomas fished off to the left of the bunker with cathal and dilan fishing out front, me and tom fished around to the right. not really much to report for the fish did not play ball at all :evil: everyone was getting the odd pull but no rod benders as such, i hit something on the float witch had some weight to it but it was off the hook within seconds. thomas also had something decent on witch also came lose on the way in. dilan then pulled in a nice wee pollock, on seeing this our spirits were up again thinking they were starting to come on the feed, but no joy. at the left with me big tom was having a nightmare of a session, he ended up losing nine rigs in a roll, nine two hook flappers plus leads :shock: at least his tackle box was a bit lighter to carry back up to the van :wink: :D
not a great session at all but we had good crack as always.
few pic's.

It was nightmare for me loosing nine rigs to the kelp. I lost more lead than would be needed to re roof a small church. It was the crack and banter with the lads that made up for it. From now on things can only get better hopefully. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I get old spark plugs off a mechanic friend of mine. They work a treat and they cost nothin so they're handy for the rough stuff. I use them for wrassing alot because of the nature of the rocky kelpy ground they like. Saves a bundle on paying for leads.
