Duration:12.30pm - 4pm ish
Tide:2.30pm approx high
Weather:Gorgeous,lots of lycra clad lovelies to oogle
Bait: Mackerel strips and fat juicy ragworm
Rigs:Baited feathers,double runners and 2/3 hook flappers
Results: Lovely little corkwing wrasse for myself
Report: Checked forecast midweek and decided it was time to dust off the gear since it's been so long since my last outing (Waterfoot club competition)
Bait was booked and bought/defrosted and I had 3 rods in the water by 12.30. Had a great whack of a bite about 15mins later that almost took the rod off the railing but upon inspecting it was gone
Having realised that it would be criminal to not have icecream on such a day,I took Rhiain with me to Mauds who acted as the holder while I drove back. Wasn't long back until I had another great knock,knowing that I was casting just off the weed I was tempting Wrasse and after reeling in,that's exactly what it was.Fished here a few times so far and it hasn't really produced,the annual comp produces lots so makes me wonder are local species dying or being mistreated during such a catchfest? Or has the weather been too cold up until recent weeks for much to show itself. Anyhow,good to get out fishing after a 3week break or so and finally end my long running blank
(pic to follow)
Think I better go out this evening.
