Kilpatrick

People: me
Duration: 20.00 to 21.00
Weather: Very windy
Bait: Lug
Rigs: 3 hook rig
Results: 3 whiting
Report:

I decided to try a different mark and I went to Kilpatrick, as soon as I stepped out the car I was blown away by the wind.
It was impossible to see or feel the bite.

First cast: two whiting
Second cast: the line snapped as it got tangled on one of the rings :(
Third cast: one whiting
Fourth cast: I managed to cast into the weeds and I lost the rig
End of the session

Clogga

People: me
Duration: 14.00 to 15.00
Weather: Very windy
Bait: Lug
Rigs: 2 hook rig
Results: Blank
Report:

I wanted to use the 50+ lug left from the previous day. At the beginning I thought about going to Wicklow harbor and hoped to get some shelter from the wind, at the end I went to Clogga hoping that the wind was not so strong there (I was wrong).
The wind was strong and the tide was very low. I casted five times, not a bite. I got stuck in the weeds a couple of times but I managed to free the the rig and I didn't loose any.

---------

I should have stayed longer in Kilpatrick as the wind was calming down.
