People:Me

Duration:1800 - 0100

Tide: Unsure but dropping for few hours and then rising

Weather: Fair, W wind and flat sea.

Bait:Rag, sandeel, mackerel, Frozen hermit.

Rigs:Single pulley and 2 hook flapper

Results:Dogs (what else) two at a time, one small smoothie and three tiny ray

Report:Very quiet till dark I only had one bite till then, not even one of the tiny dabs that are usually present. The dogs came on in force but no sign of the good size smoothies. Could have done with some peeler. Most fish caught on sandeel.

Cheers Jude, you need to venture down south.

OK Sean, I hope to try again next Tuesday, the tide should be a bit better. Now if only I can get some crab.
