The last few days
People:Me
Duration:Two sessions 2 hours each
Tide:Lw
Weather:nw wind flat water
Rigs:Soft plastics
Results:Had a few hours during the week to get out so headed to a beach near home.Been fishing over rocks the last few weeks with mixed results most fish had been small .So said i would give it a go over sand two sessions about two hours each .The rod was far from hopping but did get one bass each session . One of the fish the take was so gentle i nearly missed the bump but when i lifted into the fish not so gentle anymore took off like a mad woman and was nice size at 67cm..
