Town quay 1/05/09

Afternoon anglers ,

fished town quay again last night with eddie and aaron , arriving at 6pm to a bit of a south easterly blow , armed with an arsenal of baits rag, squid, blueys, mackeral , sandeels, and crab baits we went about doing the biz , assaulted by an army of pout from the off on all baits , which meant plenty of live bait on offer , didnt expect too much in the way off good fish as we were fishing over the ebb , also with the wind picking up was looking bleak , as the tide started to flood the wind dropped and we were met with a mill pond like sea state , virtually no movement , still managed to bag 4 species betwen us , pout and dogs were readily available , then a classic hound pull on whole crab and up came my biggest shore caught fish of the year so far smoothound (common) weighing inat 4 1/2 lb , no monster but it was nice to see a bend in the rod and have a spirited fight with something other than pout , .....................





getting bigger all the time as things slowly start to pick up on the south coast at last , one more speces for 2009s hunt ended up with a rig wrecking snotty ..............



well we called it a night at 5.30 am this morning , 1/2 hour short of another 12 hour bash , thats it now untill next friday when we are out hunting some real sport , double figure hounds and black bream ,
