Morfa Beach 17 Feb

Ian, dai and Apples decided to give this beach a go after work on Friday. This beach is another mark that is under threat. This time the bully boys are TATA steel they have the majority of the land adjacent to the beach and has sealed off access. They have also anounced that they are moving a historical right of way. There are ways on however but they do take some effort. On the way on they took the direct route over the dunes which still takes a 35 min hike however the dunes do take it out of you. We fished somewhere near the blue arrow



They arrived to a clear night with a southwesterly gusting to 20 odd mph, small tide. Bait lug, sand eel and Apples had some maddies. We fished an hour back 3 hours up. Fishing was slow with no bites at all until the start of the flood, then there were a few bites. ian hooked into something heavy but couldn't s**t it. Eventually he had to pull for a snap. Apples had a nice bite, responsible was this little beast of 33cm spikey and full of menace apples popped him back.





As for Ian and Dai, they saw a toad




they walked along the pathway on the way back which was longer but less strenuous

Good to see the silvers and the toads showing, Means spring is on it's way and summer is just around the corner , I walked past a pond yesterday and it was noisy with frogs talking, there was spawn everywhere,

Looks like you've got to be fit as a butchers dog to get to some of the marks you guys fish!


Cheers for the report
