A trip to the valleys
With the poor weather forecast for sunday, Joe and myself decided last minute on a trip to beach near Port Talbot which had a better weather forecast
and meet up with Jase and Matt, a couple of lads we've fished with before for a go at the hounds, this part of the country really has some excellent
fishing as long as you don't mind loosing gear or long walks.
Set off at 3 to fish seven hours over low and be back for 6(am :bored: ),quiet down to low with just a small turbot for me, a small eye for Joe and the odd
doggie and small codling between the four of us.
It remained slow with just a bass for the first two of the flood
The last hour and a half of the session had the smuts appear with five between us,Joe getting bit off once and almost loosing his rod to one
bite but didn't land any but had a consolation baby tope.
6lb ish
8lb-6
Jason had a 10lber which went back before i could take a picture,matt a small pup then the fish of
the night.
12lb
With a 20lb smoothie getting caught in the area the day before,planning the next trip already !!.
