| Sunday trip South East Cornwall Hi Guys, just a quick report to let you know about a trip down to South East Cornwall this weekend just gone, primarily to visit my parents, but with a healthy dose of fishing thrown in, (!) Eventually found the mark I was looking for, no mean feat after 15-20 years! And then discovered that it was a lot further and steeper than I remember, though not too bad ,and i walked down the cliff to see a mark i have'nt seen in a long time. ![]() It was taken round about low water, and the first thing that occurred was Max heading toward the water at breakneck speed, across the rocks to cool off ![]() After retrieving errant hound i set up a light beach rod, fixed spool and braid, and a spinning rod, whacked a crab on the bait rod and put it out 60yds ish, then commenced spinning for mackkies and gars, which, apart from one hit, which could have been a gar, did'nt happen, so i rigged up a single hook paternoster with lug, which resulted in a small wrasse, second chuck gave a bite which i hit, and snagged me fast, so i left it for 10 minutes, went back and finally after a good fight, landed a wrasse about 2 and a half pounds. ![]() After a couple of bait changes the crab bait, (on size 6 drennan boilie hooks,) took off, lifting the rod butt off the floor, a quick lunge and grab secured the rod and i brought in a beautiful little bream, which fought well, feeling three times it's size, ![]() I've since been told it's a Couch's Bream, don't care really, i was happy enough to just catch and return it. Last fish of the day was a hand sized Black Bream, which i did'nt worry about photographing, but just slipped him back, Also had a couple of Bass follow a yo zuri plug back in. And just 'cos it would'nt be the same without him,.... ![]() Till next time, be lucky. __________________ Remember what the dormouse said, ...... Feed your head....
