| SM #1 wc 19/7/10 Back to the beach for a short sesh this morning to catch some rays... Not a bite on party squid with extra mack/crab. lovely sunny rays meant I topped up the tan. Short sessions are expected every day this week - think I will try worm tomorrow & wed. Thu could be more of bait collection than fishing though __________________ Spahill <:--- --- --- --- It was this big --- --- --- ---:> |

| Re: SM #1 wc 19/7/10 Just noticed my stats are similar to 2008 - except only about 1/2 the variety. But then I did chase the mini species that year. Havent found where to catch them yet - guess it will be further west. __________________ Spahill <:--- --- --- --- It was this big --- --- --- ---:> |
