Weed..
I’ve been waiting patiently for tomorrows planned fishing session – depending on which source you use, the tide is quoted as either a 6.8m or 7.0m – fantastic! Slightly concerned about the condition of the sea though. I’ve been keeping an eye on it, and it seemed OK at about 7:00 this morning, if a little surfy, but at lunch time today, although not too rough, there was an absolute *shiteload* of weed around. These pics were taken from the Groyne next to Oh So’s down on the beach – there was so much weed it was floating on top of the water.
I’m really hoping that it calms down before tomorrow night, and we get a decent session off of the ******* ****** (he he – venue still a secret), but regardless of venue this should be one to remember. CANNOT WAIT. Planning a bait digging session tomorrow to supplement our Red Rag supply, and will get the usual King, plus some Black Lug from the shop. Will supplement this with some Sandeel, and some Mackerel, some of which I’m planning to use as chum for the venue.
More weed..
I’ll be buying some size 2/0 or 3/0 hooks for some *big* bait, hopefully to tempt a few nice Bass. Woohoo!
August is my favourite fishing month, so I’ll be expecting quite a few Bass, some nice Sole, Founder, Eels, Bream, Thornback Ray and my ultimate catch would be a Smoothhound – regardless of size these fish put up such a magnificent fight, I love ’em!
PS. happy one month anniversary, Blog!
