People: Me

Duration: 2 hours

Tide: Rising

Weather: Cold and windy

Bait: Rag and party squid

Rigs: 3 hook flapper

Results: 3 Brearded Rockling, Pollock and Codling

Catch and Release:: Yes



Report: Had some bait left over from this morning at Red Bay so decided to hit the Dee for a couple of hours. Bites where frequent and fierce (fish where defenitly on the feed). The codling was 27cm taken on rag/squid but I managed to land a pollock to 36cm (1lb) on the light rod, great scrap all the way across. Went home happy after landing 10 fish.

Hopefully Orlock will do the business for you rab01. I haven't caught a coaly in a while and I miss the fight
