Wexford Friday 13th Feb 2009

#1 Post by Danny M. »

People:Myself and Carpets

Duration:4 Hours

Tide:Rise/ fall

Weather:Fresh/rain/warm

Bait:Lug

Rigs:Pennel Pulleys 4/0 / 3/0

Results:Myself 4 Bass & 1 Rockling
Carpets 2 Bass & 1 Coalie




Report:
Tried a new spot last night.
Surf was huge, 2nd cast I got a Bass just inside the sand bank. I got another soon after. Carpets picked up a coalie close in too. I put a bait out past the sand bank and was rewarded with a nice Bass. Carpets pulled in a bass soon after for distance. And lost one in the suds when a wave broke on him!
I got a nother Bass at distance and about 20 yards from the shore the rod buckled over in my hand and I thought I was into a Donkey of a Bass that was swimming towards and just woke up...A couple of shouts out of me ...the line went slack and a Bass appeared on the beach with Bite marks on the side of him!! something appears to have had grabbed it :shock:

All Bass were returned alive.

Until Next time 8)

Theres another 2 Friday the 13ths this Year to go :!: :lol:


I dont think it was a seal as the scales wernt penetrated.
They were noticeably marked alright.

But in sayint that it could have been anthing really !

I might have to live bait a small coalie the next time im there to see what happens.
