People:me and james

Duration:3-6

Tide:on the rise

Weather:calm, sunny and dry.

Bait:lug and makerel

Rigs:2 hook clip down

Results:20+ whiting( a few around a 1lb) and 10+ codling (all small , biggest around 25cm)

Catch and Release:: Yes



Report:the weather wasn't great for fishing so we didn't expect much. tried white rock for a bass as a small surf was running but nada fish in sight for an hour so we moved back up towards the carpark and set up base camp. a dog p1ssed on my beach buddy as i was casting james stood and laaughed, he didn't pay for it.
sent the rigs as far a possible towards the horizon in the hope for a doggie or two but instead ended up with whiting after whiting after whiting then followed by a small cod plague at about 5.
on an interesting note some dog walkers told me they saw fish jumping out of the water, any suggestions as to what they are?

Sorry Gazo no help there I fished it last month for the first time in years. I was at the carpark and fished a dropping tide so would like to try sometime with it rising.
