Bunagee pier culdaff 02/01/11

#1 Post by cathald »

People:myself and the nephew Dylan

Duration:4.30-8.30

Tide:dropping

Weather:calm but very cold

Bait:mack

Rigs:pullys and flappers

Results:me 5 coalies and 2 flounder.....Dylan = blanked




Report:Headed down to bunagee this evening after Husshunter said he might be about but there was no sign of him ,gave Dylan a ring and his dad dropped him down.
I had a rod out at distance and one about 30yards out.
Dylan had a rod out and a conger rod down
A few coalies banging away at the bait but few hook-ups the rod out at distance got an almighty bang and almost came out of the tripod I thought it was a big doggie but it was a flounder of 30cm the short rod was picking up coalies now and again but no size to them 20-25cms.
Dylan had a couple of runs on the conger rod but no hook-ups and nothing on the other rod.
We packed up about 8.30 and headed for home
