People:Me, chrisfeeny30, Rampant Wreckfish and 5 others.

Duration:2:00-6:00

Tide:down then up.

Weather:warm, windy.

Bait:sandeel, mack, squid.

Rigs:everything.

Results:me: Nada :cry:
Chris: 1 doggie, dragonet.
jp:1 flounder

Catch and Release:: Yes



Report:well i got down to the place early to see if there were any fish about and first cast i got me a doggie. then the comp started
and there were a few fish here and there, mostly to the big hitters. then i think jp got his flounder early on and when we moved Chris got his doggie. i meanwhile had managed to loose 3 fish and get a hook snipped by a crab. altogether an enjoyable day if it was a bit frustrating.Chris managed to impale a dragonet on his gripper. funny stuff. and i also think jp dropped a fair few doggies.

Ya could have told me too Alex! Would have made up for missing Killary the day before due to suffering the hangover from hell :evil:

Who won it anyway?
Its called fishing, not catching. If it was called catching it wouldn't be fishing!
