Sandgate - Hythe

[Brit]

Hi everyone.... new to this forum stuff... nevertheless wanted to share todays catch.

what a day.... Sandgate produced continuoious strikes almost all day long... was there from tide up 12ish throught to 19:00. Southwesterly made it tricky to get any distance but hell that never mattered a bit. Landed over 30 whiting.... two dog fish, a nice bass... mostly under sized, other than two for the pot.... and a single strange gernard type fish. What a cool location.

I was trying to type a text between strikes.... thats how it was like... continuious! used black and yellow lug.... never caught a thing on squid heads or mackrel. was casting around 100m - 115max. Strong eastward current because of the south westerly.

Made one big mistake... forgot the suncream and am sitting here glowing ... totally toasted.

Good luck guys
