better than soaps
Davey on Tue Oct 26, 2010 7:36 am
The wife was working till 8pm then would be watching her soaps, which she'd recorded, when she got home and some ow I didn't fancy that.
So grabbing a pack of sandeels and mackeral I was back down yaverland, and the baits were in the water by 7pm.
A calm sea and the moon was still big and bright and it was bloody chilly.
Well I didn't have to wait long for the first bite 7.40pm and the rod gets pulled hard round, there was some weight there but it wasn't doing a lot, but as I pulled it through the gentle surf a pair of beady eyes shone back at me, and a small eyed ray was landed, going 2lb 12oz.
Well I fished on till 10.30pm but with only one more bite I called it a night.
As I said better than watching the soaps.

You'd better stop posting Davy otherwise there will be a massive emigration south to the Isle! I often wonder why the variety of Ray seem to dry out in the region of Anglesey, north Wales. From there north we only seem to come across Thornbacks.

Could'nt agree with you more Davey, would sooner spend the evening looking for 'ray' than watching the soaps! Well done buddy
