Went back up to Chesil on Thursday, on checking the forcast there was a nice little window for some fishing.
Was fishing by half three and it was peeing down with a slight breeze, Were it to the dogs from the off with a mix of Pout (biggest was 1lbs 12oz)and some nice size Yting.

First cod came an hour before high water and had the smaller one over high.

6lbs 10oz and 2lbs 12oz.

Had a lovely nod and slack liner just after high, hit it and everything went solid for a split second before it decided to take off up the beach.
Gained some line and it took twice as much back. Loads of head shaking and when I finally starting to gain line on it the hook length gave out.

On inspecting the line it had been well and truly smashed up. Put this down to one of the resident eels, nice scrap though which got the heart going a bit quicker lol.

Well with silly season almost here I'm hoping that this was not my last visit to Chesil this year, would like to get a couple more sessions in if the missus lets me out !!!!

Cheers,
