Well done Sean, getting up at the crack of dawn paid off again.
May have to try it myself - I was out for a couple of hours last night over high tide, the water was indeed very clear and the northwesterly winds had flattened the surf, but the was no sign of any fish activity and all I managed was a small pollock.

bass around [even if it is in waterford] :D when this jet stream moves back to where it
