hi everyone, want to try the bay on sunday morning and wondered whether i'd be likely to catch? i was gonna start with the rocks close to the beach to start with for hopefully flounder, then take a dander round to painted rock to c whats happening. if anyone has fished here in daylight and caught this year please post a wee reply.

hi there rab.

I haved fished here a couple of times in daylight to no avail really. I tried spinning from the painted rock onwards round the coast using loads of different lures.

good luck

plans have changed mate. i was working too late and never got to dig rag. i will get trying here soon though. guess its not fishing too well, from the amount of replies. looks a lovely spot to fish.

Ive also fished it in daylight with no fish caught,much better fished at night try at the ramp in front of the wee stream or the far right of the beach can throw up some nice flounders and dogs not to mention the odd surprise
