Results: 8 three bearded rockling 21-33cm
1 coalfish
Report: Well the advantage of having too much bait and enough left over for another session when fishing at the weekends is that my wife understands (allows) me to go fishing again at the start of the week. Headed down to a local rock mark after work to fish it but big swels meant I couldn't get down to the ledge I wanted. So I headed around the cobh to the pier. Most fish caugt in the first 2 hours and curiously all (apart from a double shot) the 3 bearded rocklings were caught on the middle snood, which was about four feet from the lead, not sure if this is significant. I was fishing over sand but casting up along the rocky reef (not easy in the dark with only the sound of the waves softly breaking over the reef). Delighted with my session, some well coloured 3 bearded rocklings.
great wee session must try that pier sometime been passing it by for to long,must be great to have an understanding partner like i'd have to drug mine and shove her in the boot of my car,
