Well it ain't nice out. in fact it's downright awful. i think i preferred the sub zero and snow, at least i wouldn't be so wet. Monsson conditions but it's day one fo the wrasse challenge so i had to be first in there!!
Missed my bass mark but there's a wrassy area nearby so I went there.
It wasn't long before I felt some taps and then right under my feet in the boulders whallop, fish on big style, running me along the edge of the pier, new reels drag doing very well indeed.
eventually got him over and it felt heavy.
44cm to the closest cm and 3lb 12oz 8dm.
he was followed by a smaller but spirited fish a little later, 39cm and 2lb 4oz.
I had several others including a friendly one which pulled my lure and jig out of a snag. Cheers fish!!
