Report:
A belter of a weekend from all aspects, Fishing was brilliant, banter, beer, had it all. So most of our fishing was on the evening tide at our usual bait mark. I cant give it away but if it helps anyone looking for a good mark to try, shallow water, good water movement, patches of sand amongst rocky ground. Typical bass ground. Fish were not big, we did have a handful of bass to approx 4Ib. Action was non stop. Ye had to be quick as the knock when it came either resulted in a fish or a stripped hook.
We tried lures in the morning session, was slow enough. Only one bass on a lure. I had a pollock approx 4Ib in weight on Sat morning, savage fight as I belted out a kilty lure, wind assisted. About 3 turns later the rod buckled over. Gave a great account of itself. I was out on rock and my camera was about 30 ft behind me.! DOH..!
Didnt see any sign of sea trout. We dont target them but we usually see plenty jumping and hook the odd one. Very surprising.
All in all though another cracking weekend in Brandon. Big thanks to our host too who gave us 3 lobsters FOC..! Yum..!
I have attached a few pics, same aul same aul really..!!
