Freshwater East (20 Whiting, 1 Dab, 1 Turbot, 1 Dogfish, 2 Pouting)

Freshwater East 30/01/2008
Time: 5.00pm to 9.00pm.
Tide: LW to LW+4. Neap tide.
Weather: Overcast, West winds, some rain.
Sea: Moderate.
Tackle & Bait: Mackerel strips.
Fishing: Busy.
Comments: Regular bites and a nice variety of fish. Went out after the whiting. There was a strong right to left current that dragged the rigs around a lot. I didn't bother with grip leads and just let them move about to find the fish - seemed to work. Got most of the whiting on the longer distance rod, just couldn't seem to get out far enough with the shorter distance rod.

Druidston Haven (1 Whiting)

Time: 4.00pm to 7.00pm.
Tide: LW-3 to LW. Neap tide.
Weather: Overcast.
Sea: Moderate.
Tackle & Bait: Mackerel strips.
Fishing: Poor.
Comments: I hate standing on beaches and catching bugger all! Weather is too bad to get on many of the rock marks. The fish have all gone out to deeper water it seems, even the whiting.
