Sea fishing Forums

as i drove into the harbour fishface was going home when i got down to meet dave i could understand why the wind had picked up and was blowing dave around the harbour like a ping pong ball bouncing him around the wall managed to set up without anthing blowing into the sea ,rods where bouncing making it hard to see bites within an hour all was flat calm and we got down to some nice fishing ,rod tips busy and some nice pollock taking our baits ,dave packed up just after timmy(the birthday boy with his new rod) arrived as his stomach was making more noise than the mini hurricane from earlier on i was getting a few pouting so decided to rig up a conger bait ,a whole pouting not a touch for half an hour when i noticed a twitch and reeled in ,my 4/0 pennel was bare the whole fish was eaten by the crabs,ect ,packed away that rod and as timmy wasnt getting many fish i advised him to fish shorter and maybe move over to where dave had been as it is a mini hotspot things went quiet then and i noticed timmys rod was getting a nibble,he lifted into the rod and it bent double snagged? nope it was nodding nicely as he hauled it up and got to the surface he felt a ping as something gave ,and he wound up a nice codling that threw up a 15 cm rockling at his feet ,bottom snood had parted /being bitten through ,still he was a happy man a nice supper for his birthday present


we got pouting ,coalies,pollock,scorpions,whiting,shore rockling,3 beard rockling,and a cod so a good tally by the end of the night
