#1 Post by Preston »

People:myself and ferg

Duration:4 hours

Tide:dropping

Weather: calm,dry and cold

Bait:lug,razor,sandeel and mack

Rigs: single clipped and flappers

Results: didnt blank !


Report:
Well myself and ferg decided last minute to have a cast so hit one of the local beaches just as the sun was setting and the tide dropping . After having blanked numerous times despite lee and Nicks best efforts I was starting to lose all hope . Anyway I started with two big baits and fished one close and one at distance whilst ferg fished small baits in close resulting in a small whiting first cast on lug. Shortly after my rod started to show tell tale signs of weed and snap ,rig gone. It turned out to be a blessing as after i swapped to a two hook flapper baitedwith lug i got a bite after five minutes which turned out to be my first flounder . Fergal continued on taking small whiting and coalies as well as sandeel and flounder whilst I went back to bigger baits in search of Bass and dogs but wasnt too be . We packed in just after ten as the cold was starting to creep in . Happy out not having another blank to my name..
