Grosvenor Sunday 13th
Weather seemed to brighten after lunch so made a hasty decision to give the Grosvenor a go.
7.5 m tide and howling a gale!
Arrived 30 mins early and dug myself some lug - a bit hard work - sand was bone dry as tide had not been up for a few days and wind had dried the surface.
Anyway, walked out to meet the tide with rod and tripod. A bit of a struggle - casting was hard work into the wind, tripod kept blowing over and you can guess where my cap ended up.
Fished it back to the rocks - I had my usual flounder and an eel. Alex had a flounder. Bite detection nearly impossible, so packed up just before high
No blank, but no bass yet. they'll be here soon? - usually 2nd week of May

Re: Grosvenor Sunday 13th
Good effort,there's no pleasure in catching when you don't even know you've had a bite-all you can do is hope for no blank.
Took 1 look at it myself & thought 'no way' today,lets hope we get some decent weather and a regular supply of decent fish soon,the Bass are almost overdue .

Make a difference - take home one piece of someone's angling litter next time you are out fishing
