doh! yeah on second thoughts I reckon your right. It is a coalie. Ha! A bass on the north coast... what was I thinking?! :cry:

The rig was layed out just beside the fish but not hooked.

surf was good. Whiterocks was too mental for me so moved to east strand.
Nearly everyday is producing something usable with the winter swells its just the wind and direction that is spoiling some days. The weekend looks ok but probly the worst days for swell. Start of next week looks terrifying. All depends what you are after. Most of the time its too big for me :shock:
