Ladye Bay, 29-09-13

Felt like a bit of sea fishing

so with Lug, Rag and Squid

I headed down to Clevedon's

Ladye Bay.

I arrived at the Bay road and saw 

1st point was free.

So decided to bag that spot.

Started fishing at 06.00

with low water at 08.38

and high water 15.27.

I used 4/0 pennel pulley rig on one rod

loaded with sqid / lug / rag sausages and 

a 1/0 , 4/0 live bait rig on the other loaded with

lug and rag cocktail bait.

From the off the bait was being stripped

with in 10 minutes by what I guessed was crabs.

First bite was just as the tide started

to pick up.

But I missed it on the 4/0 rig.

Then there were no more bites until 10.05

when a little whiting took the live bait rig.

I then hooked it on to the 4/0 rig

and cast it out, at 10.15ish

this 11lb. 4oz Conger decided to

come a say hello.

It was photographed, weighted

and released.

That was the end of the excitement.

With crabs nicking the bait at a heck of a rate

I ran out by 14.00.

I'm glad I chose 1st point as

the wind was quite strong from the north east

which I managed to shelter from.

Nice session.

Might try Rockingham on the weekend.
