#1 Post by rodbender »

People:Me, Daughter, Don

Duration:Not long enough

Tide:Falling

Weather:Glorious

Bait:Mack, Sandeel, Squid,Bluey

Rigs:Pulley, 2Up 1Down



Report:Took the family and grandkids to Lenan for a day out :) and set up a couple of rods just in case I got fed up playing on the beach with the kids :lol: .Had barbe goin, rods set up and in the water by 1300. Was joined shortly after by Don and the family, followed shortly after by another mate and his misses, and soon after by Tom and his misses (to be).
Don And I retired to the beach and left the rest talking of weddings, suits, kilts and allsorts of crap, not our thing but BIG BAD TOM seemed very interested and didnt fish today. :lol: :lol: Very quiet to begin with and baits were coming in untouched. I was first in with a nice Turbot making 25cm which wasnt even hooked but holding the bait in its mouth. Fish landed none the less quick pic and returned. Don was next up with a small Turbo and I landed a nice we founder. On my next cast I was taken as quick as the bait hit the bottom which produced another Turbo.
At this stage we were summoned for food, handy having the woman along :roll:but it interupts the fishing :lol: No more fishing was done :cry: :cry: but an enjoyable evening was had by all and a few fish to boot. :D :D
