High tide yesterday
I made it down the steps yesterday and fished 3 up and 1 down. The local shop still has no lug bait and I am still nursing a dodgy shoulder so baits for the day were squid sand eel and razor.
Weed was a problem from the off so I fished one rod with 1/0 2 hook flapper and a 40 yard lob.
I got a flounder on squid about an hour before high and that was it. I got absolutely soaked as I left when the forecast light shower arrived, unfortunately with the house move etc. I cannot locate my fishing jacket and the light weight one I was wearing proved useless so that's a good excuse to visit the local worm less shop.
I did take a picture of the flounder but that turned out to be a 4 second video and it won't upload.
Tight lines guys.
