North Coast Sesh!

Went out around 5pm to a local mark less than 2 miles from home which i know has not been fished for some time. Had a walk/climb down the other day and not even a scrap of mono to be found so thought we,d give it a go.
Set up for around 5.30, high tide was at 9 so plan was to fish til 10.
I had one rod in the bottom straight away and my mate decided to try a bit of float fishing for some fresh bait but got only pollack biggest around 2lb.
I decided to chill out for the night and just put my other rod in the rough also.
Nothing much doing til jammy git put a rod in the rough and landed this wee fellow just shy of 9lbs 1st chuck lol!



I followed it up with a monster strap tipping the scales at 2lb, went strangely quiet around the golden hour (dusk), into the dark and the fog was coming in and swell lifting with it. I managed one more strap around 8lb just before 10 so with that it was time to head home.
A very enjoyable evening and back home with a beer before 11.
Worth another go on a smaller tide i reckon!

Re: North Coast Sesh!

I hate to say this guys but it,s a baby compared to the one he had earlier this year less than a mile from this mark, it tipped the scales at a whopping 17lb 8oz,s. My best is a mere 14lb from a mark on the south coast.
We are hoping for better things from this mark soon.

Re: North Coast Sesh!

Nice huss Steve,
I have yet to catch a double figure fish, I was hoping I might tick that box this year but its proving harder than I thought. Oh well. Just have to keep trying!
All the best.
Jason

Got a few double's under my belt already Chaz, it's one fish that seems to be ,more prolific each year down here.
Take it you guys have had a few up there?
