People:myself and mate ken

Duration:11pm til 5pm

Tide:rising

Weather:lovely :shock:

Bait:crab,squid, mackerel

Rigs:pennel pullys 4/0 and 3 hook flappers 1/0

Results:whiting, codling, pouting, flonder and dabs




Report:hadnt been out for and age, car loaded and off we went, beach was busy enough when we arrived but found a nice spot and away we went, had some good cod here last few years so was hopeful off a few decent nodders, wasnt to be tho as the whiting were devouring everything before anything else could get to the baits, have to say tho there were decent fish 40 - 45 cms most of them,and lots for the pan, had lots of trebles of whiting but a few very quick dabs, flounder and small codling got to a hook or two before the greedy whiting,all in all a great days fishing , badly needed, and nice to see some fish around in daytime, will be back again soon :mrgreen: forgot me camera, DOH!!, mate has some pics on his phone so will try upload a few if he ever sends em to me , :?

nice one james. have you tried using a whiting on a pennel pulley yet?
if there is an abundance of them around with the cod it might be worth a go to get a decent nodder :wink: :D
