#1 Post by craigo »

People:Myself & Stephen

Duration:5 ~ 10

Tide:hw around 1am

Weather:cold northerly wind

Bait:lug razor

Rigs:2 hook Feeder & pulley 3/0

Results:Me 2 whitin Stephen 1 Shrimp




Report: Went out digging lug this morning at half7 for Clonea tonight , got to the spot it was still dark. digging was tough had to dig in waterlogged trenches to get the worms after an hour and a half we had enough to do us the night comfortably. We could hear the surf rolling in on Tramore beach as we were leaving and assumed there would still be a surf tonight and therefore be an ideal night for a few bass to be on the feed ! Wrong . we got to Clonea there was one wave rolling in Gutted. Not to waste the trip I set up wit the feeder rig and got one whiting . After an hour of nothing we decided to go to Bunmahon . Same thing 1 Whiting on the feeder rig.
We eventually got home sick and thought Better the Divil you know than the Divil you dont and headed for Tramore :roll:
Nothing for me there and one shrimp for Stephen !!
There was another man fishing Tramore when we got there he was packing up he had 1 whiting and was using peeler for bait !

This time I mixed peeler crab , lug worm , Herring sprats , sardines and some weetabix!
I have only tried the feeder rig a few times so I'm still experimenting with the mix. Last night i got fish with it when no one else was so it does work when there are fish there!.
If you have a look in tips and tricks for sea anglers TheShoreKing has explained !!!
