Tide:Low but rising

Weather:Calm, Sunny

Bait:Mackerel, Wrap, Mussel, Lug

Rigs:1up 1 Down (size 2's) / 2 Hook Flapper (size 1's)

Catch and Release:: Yes

Report:
Went down for a few hours, typical Sunday afternoon so wanted something to do . . . .
Started slow but when the tide started to rise the dabs and whiting came thick and fast.
Casting needed to be no more than 20 yards, was great craic with the rod tip going all the time.
Packed up about 6 and headed for home . . was an enjoyable session and great to be out on such a nice day!

Cheers Gino, just wanted to get out and do something for a few hours, you know yourself!
I find that beach always fishes well for dabs and small stuff, keeps the rod going anyway.

Can be very good for Codling when the wind is up or just dying away!!

Cheers Moe, yeah, its a grand little spot, and not too many walkers either which is always good . .

I'd say after dark it would have been even better.
