I was plugging on the rocks a couple of miles away and when it got dark I called over to see if there was anyone fishing. It was around 10pm. Couldn't see any lights so presumed there was no one there. You mustn't have had any rod tip lights either?

Tom, that was a great result given the settled conditions and the water clarity. That was the reason I went plugging. Unfortunately, I had bugger all - but great to get out on evenings that were almost like summer.

Fair play tom, well done on the BAss. We ended up plagued by dogs on the beach you met us on nearby and gave up around midnight.
