Ladye Bay tomorrow 23-04-15

Tackle and bait ready so off to 

ledges for some Thornys.

I hope.

What! Out again 05-04-15

With enough worm bait left over 

plus some Squid, 

I arrived down Rockingham

for a 07.15 start.

Just 10 minutes  after the first cast

this 3lb 4oz Codling was dragged in over the 

mud having taken the Rag / lug pennel rig.

 Well, with a flat calm sea,

much warmer than the day before

and a brighter sky

there was very little action till high water.

Then I had another 3 codling and 2 flounder.

This photo taken just before high water

shows the back end of the front

which brought the sun out spot on high water at

08.45.

Another really enjoyable

fishing trip.

Roll on the rivers opening up again.

Woo Hoo! Out at last. 04-04-15.

With a high tide at 08.09

and a height of 12.7 mtrs.

I had lug and rag for bait

and the usual rigs.
Venue was Rockingham.

With my first cast at 06.20 I was full of hope for some fish.

There was a light North / north west wind.

The bites were few but steady,

at first mainly the bait being sucked on all the hooks,

whether 1/0 or 4/0 so I guess there were a  few crabs about.

Eventually the first rattle on the rod tip produced

a small flounder on Log worm to a 4/0 hook.

This was followed by a small codling

on the specimen rod only 10 mtrs out.

This had lug and rag on a 1/0 hook.

About 20 minuets before high water 

,

this flounder of 1lb 9oz

took the wishbone rig with rag on the 3/0 hook.

 After the the tide turned

I managed another flounder a 2 codling.

A very enjoyable return to fishing at last.

Bait ordered!

Yes indeed bait has been ordered,

that can only mean sea fishing trip or two this weekend.

Rockingham or Portishead?

That is the question!

Still not out?????????????????

Yep still not getting enough time to

get a long enough escape chit to 

warrant the cost of a day ticket

fishing a muddy puddle.

Might get out.

Looking at getting out this weekend

if I can.

Possibly sea fishing.

Tides up to 14.7 meters.

So Portishead way

for me.

No fishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once again health reasons

(not mine)

for not getting out on the bank.

I don't think I'll be fishing the rivers

till the new season in June.
