People:me

Duration:2045-0030

Tide:hw @ 2200

Weather:clear sky, half moon, no breeze

Bait:lug, squid, razor

Rigs:2 hook clipped, 3 hook boom flapper

Results:8 flounder to 32cm, 2.5lb bass




Report:
beautiful night to be out, not a breath of wind, bright moon light and a nice medium surf running. had all the fish from 2 and 1/2 hours before hw until i left. all the flounder bar 1 tea bag were abve the 20cm mark and caught withing 30-40 yds of the shore. they seemed to have a definate preference for lug tipped with a long thin strip of squid. i also dropped what felt like quite a good flounder from over egerness. bass took lug with a fingernail size of squid about 90yds out.
