People:myself, Seaniebo and Jfkireland

Duration:a few hours

Tide:???

Weather:strenghtning sidewind, southerly

Bait:lug, mackeral, razor, squid, crab, mussel and sandeel

Rigs:2 and 3 hook flappers, 2 hook clip downs and pennells

Results:about 10 flounder to 31cm, a few whiting and a codling and a dab

Report:the day started badly and the sea seemed quite lifeless but it picked up after a cast or two as we started finding fish. had to work for them though!
nice enough day and nice to get out!! you wouldn't believe how much it meant to catch a few flounder. a nice change from chasing codling. fair play to Jfkireland for headin down.

crab fished poorly. with cocktails of the others producing fish.

i won the 'he who has the biggest forehead' competition
