North Wexford, beach, 15th March '14

#1 Post by John D »

People: Mé féin

Duration:18:00 until 22:30

Tide:spring - high at about 20:00

Weather:clear sky, mild, calm wind & sea

Bait:fresh lug from Joe's in Courtown

Rigs:1 hook paternoster, size 1/0 hook, 1.5oz bomb weight

Results:2 schoolie bass, 2 codling & 2 pin whiting

Report:All the fish were tiny but I must admit it was the most enjoyable night's fishing I've had in years. A clear mild night with a big bright full moon. The noise of the small waves gently rolling onto the beach. At the beginning of the evening, approaching dusk before I'd caught any fish, I spotted the only other angler in the vicinity - a sea otter!

Hi lad123.

I was using a small (about 1.5 oz) plain bomb weight.

Regards,
John D.
