Hard luck on the blank lads :x , but sure any day spent fishing is one not spent thinking about the pressures of life and our knackered country :shock:

I think i was just a bit down from you boys, i was in rostoonstown could see 3 headlights a good bit up the beach from us .

Caught one bass 500mm and a few small flounders, fished from about 9 till 3 , caught the bass first cast on lug then went very quiet with the odd flounder, but was happy enough missed the sunset though looked mint.. was hopin to spot some cod around but must be a bit eary didnt think the bass were still about

Good things come to those who wait :)
The finest gift you can give a fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"

Fished the Saturday evening (27/10/2012) over a four hour period (1 hour up and 3 down) 7 x schoolies averaging 2.lb all returned plus an odd dog and flats.

Neap tide and a flat calm sea didn't help, lug is your only man here.
