North Wex. (Plaice,Tub Gurnard,Turbot,Tope,Smoothie, etc.)

#1 Post by gitboy »

People: Me and brothers

Duration: 17:00-24:00

Tide: Ht 21:00

Weather: Gorgeous (even went for a swim and saw lots of fishes)

Bait: Rag,Lug,Crab,Mackeral

Rigs: 2up 1down

Results:
I won 42 fish but lads caught over 30 each.

Report:
Fished a new mark that has being producing, amazed as the amout of species on this mark. In the last 3 trips we have had over 12 species...not bad from the shore.
From the off the fishing was very good it better and better. we we trying like everyone at the moment for the larger smoothies but apart from two good solid fish (more likely bass) lost in the surf thr rest of the fish were in the 25-30cm bracket. But catching these 3 at a time is very enjoyable. 100 counting fish in 6 hours. All swam away apart from a very respectable 30mm plaice.
Luck is when preparation meets opportunity..
