waterford estuary 12/10/14

#1 Post by lad123 »

People: just me

Duration: 3 hours 6pm - 9pm

Tide: full at 8.50

Weather: calm

Bait: frozen lug and mackerel

Rigs: flappers

Results: 5 dogfish 1 codling 1 dab




Report: Started fishing at 6 oclock and the fishing was bad for an hour and a half with no fish caught. The crabs were stripping the bait from the hooks. As soon as it got dark the fish start biting but the dogfish were a pest. I caught a small dab and codling double around 8 oclock , the codling was a keeper and the dab was tiny. There were a few rats around the pier trying to steal the mackerel

Great to see the dogfish so far up the river, the rain will prob flush them back down though.

Good result!
