North wexford Smoothie 02/08

#1 Post by southaussie »

SouthPeople:me a mate and kevin from the site

Duration:from half 8 till 1

Tide:rising high at 12ish

Weather:lovely

Bait:rag, lug, crab and squid

Rigs:flappers, pulleys

Results:pb smoothie :D , whiting and a doggie




Report:
headed to a mark to get out for the nite, havnt fished since being back from achill, fishing started slow with small bites on both rods but no hook ups, changed down hook size of flapper and small whiting caught, blank saved, around half ten the distance rod took a leap grabbed it and started to reel it in, fish on :D wasnt stripping line but was resisting with great success and thru the small shore surf out popped a nice pb smoothie, last fish was a nice sized doggie
sorry for the pic quality was taken on my phone
Rogers lucky rod strikes again :wink: :wink:

Well done Buddy, that is a great photo considering it was taken on a phone. It must have been taken by a gifted photographer. :lol: :roll:
I don't fish to catch fish. I just like using the gear.
