thanks for that always handy to have a little knowledge of a fishing ground,we use to fish in on the left as you cross the bridge think there was a factory or big building of some sort and the strectch behind it use to produce big flounder im going back a long time my mother had a 44cm flounder out of there the club only stopped fishing it because it wasnt really suitable for pegging out for comps,anyhow thanks i will post report after fishing next week.
