Rod Shots


Recommended Posts

We had a breeze coming off the land so over my shoulder and out to sea. This mark sits within two harbour arms which flattens the sea somewhat, but it was rather calm. I’m much happier being out in the fresh air, I spent 13yrs in the army,  so don’t mind a bit of cold weather - no such thing as bad weather, only bad choice of clothing!

So far, had the 2 for myself, little ens rod just gone back out when he woke up.

My left hand 7 wraps out, right hand just before tip of tree, had 1 on each so far.

Little ens just before tip of tree, few liners so far, both fishing semi slack running rigs.

The bivvy has done well, got both our beds in, ample room.

Be a good spacious bivvy for just 1 on a long session.

Did you have any luck? Last two trips have been utterly biteless down here 

No mate it was a blank for me, I did stick with big lug and squid baits on pully rigs  because there's still the odd cod coming out. A couple of mates were out with me they were on small baits and hooks and managed a dab and and a couple whiting between them. It was unbelievably cold but it great too be out. Can't wait for this Wednesday night, we are out again, Wednesday nights are becoming a regular thing I'm loving it.

I'm out for the night rods all got a nice drop, one on a bag, one on a noodle, and one on a spinner, all 3 had a good helping of bait, the rudds have woken up so they've probably nicked a lot of it 😭

Best of luck Elmo…you got to stop feeding the ruddy Rudd no wonder they like you so much.  🙄
