The Island 27th Sept

[Yesterday i was stuck in a stuffy office enduring a safety course the lecturer asked if i minded cutting it to half a day. Spent the morning looking out the window like when you were a kid at school. It was an instant decision to get out. Lets gets some fresh air and make the most of the weather :sun: . Looked at the tides and weather conditions, thought I might know somewhere with a surf. I arrived about 16:00 hrs loaded with three packs of massive wild rag, a pack of lug and 12 peelers (thanks Joe from Jokers Colwyn Bay spot on la . This beach is pretty much unused, tried it once before in April and blanked but, new it could produce with a bigger tide it is a shallow beach without any gullies.

Tried varying distances to find the feeding rounds and wasnt bothered that I caught a number of doggies

I was more hopeful than confident of catching a Bass in the bright :sun: but, after 40 minutes I was in 1.8lb caught on rag worm

If the dreaded weed stayed away I was going to stay through from low to high tide
Two hours after a low had another three about the same weight and giving good sport.

It continued like this more or less throughout the session a Bass or a dog

Two hours before high tide lost a good bass about 15 feet away think this was down to me, i didn't turn my headlight off the bilghter jerked off swam past my feet and away (excuse the expression oh err)
The water was crystal clear and only bits of weed to disturb the fishing I occasionally waded into the surf and pulled the weed off the sinking lines. The night sky was clear the air warm, stars out with several shooting across the blackened sky --- great night to be fishing. Incidentally told the lads at work about the night fishing (they just don't get it :thumbdown: If you get good nights and your in the zone there's nowt better :yahoo:

had my last fish 2 hours after Hight Tide the last two hours being the most hectic

New it was a good session just by looking at all the cuts on my hands. The missus put magarine on them this morning can't believe there not better
fftopic Please note! this not a secret venue. I have not mentioned where it is. I'm conscious of the fact that other members don't approve for obvious reasons and respect this, although I don't think it really matters - in other words I have had a bollocking :nono: Cheers all,[/color]Abbo :1: [/color][/color][/i][/b]
