U know u have Just poured Petrol on the fire "aka the Point", wont get standing room down there the weekend now, hard 2 keep somethings quiet i see... It will be fished out of it now...!! Nice1 :? PS We are the guys that were beside u.. Tip for the future, If u know of a few fish goin somewhere, especially as rare as tope, keep it 2 urself and tell no1, u will have a better chance of gettin one urself and maybe for a friend aswell.. I was down there 2 night and when i turned the corner, there was 7 rods in the water, and thats just the start of it...

I think the fire was well ignited, it is no great secret anyway, as there was no room there on the last 2 occassions i was down there.

Hey Squig,

"The point" has come up many times on the forum before. It's a well know Tope from the shore mark. Have a quick search for reference. IMO, I think there are better marks out there for them. The point seems to be very hit and miss anyway.

Hey MAC,

Yeah i know it has come up loads of times on SAI before, just sayin that when a few fish actually do start 2 come up there its weird why some ppl would be on this straight away 2 let everyone know, thats all.. Its a weird place anyhow, wont produce for ages and when it does, it is plastered all over this :? Like we caught fish in numbers the other night and when i got woke up there was a post on this about it, strange the way things work.. Tanx anyhow MAC, talk soon..
