Waterfoot Pier. Antrim 16_12_09

#1 Post by rodbender »

People:ME

Duration:1800ish till 0200

Tide:HIGH 2300

Weather:Brisk easterly, dry and quite pleasant

Bait:Old bait that had defrosted, Herring, Sandeel

Rigs:Various

Results:2 Codling 1Flounder 5 Coalie




Report:Wee lad wanted to go fishing( I dont need to be asked 2ice) so I bribed her that has to be obeyed with a chinese, gathered up some old bait since I didnt expect to get fishing long and off we all set. :D :D
Eat the chinese and set the rods up and waited for Adam to come out of the van. Bites were very slow so I wasnt in any hurry for him. A small codling abt 34cm fell to sandeel on a spoon. :D :D. A few more knocks and I went to get Adam, everyone fast asleep :wink: :lol: :lol:. Fished away happily but it was very slow, averaging a fish every hour. Two coalie were abt the 32_34 cm mark, the rest being smaller. A very pleasant unexpected trip with a few fish to boot, so retired 0200. Thanks Adam :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
