nth clare, 31st jan

#1 Post by corbyeire »

People: myself and nthclare

Duration: 3.30 to 7

Tide: high at 4

Weather: windy and showery

Bait: fresh lug, frozen lug, mac, sandeel

Rigs: 2,3 hook flappers, pulley

Results: 1 flounder, 1 bass

Report: nth clare had the day off work so a quick session was organised - as i understood it we were going to a regular enough haunt of his - long story short after about an hour he picks out a flounder about 20cm

he tells me its his first flounder there!

then an hour later as it just got dark properly - he is telling me how he never got a bass on this beach either - then bang bang goes the rod tip beside us and he reels in a bass round the 3lb mark

third blank in a row now for me - but im turning out to be a bit of lucky charm for nth clare - those big juicy lug doing the trick for both fish

It's been hit and miss there for a while now and although I have seen big flounder come out of it there has been very few since Christmas. And you are right big juicy lug seems to be the best bait although I have had flounder and bass on razor.

Well done on a few fish anyway

Well done to Nth Clare on the few fish. Hard luck on the blank Corby, the fish aren't exactly jumping out of the water on the east coast at the minute either :( :(
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!
