Rigs - Pennel Pulleys
Tide - High >>>Low
Place - Boarhills seastack
Dad and I decided to go visit our old stomping ground of the rocky shores around Boarhills. We arrived around HT and were in for a bit more of a walk than we remembered, especially bogged down with all the gear under the sun. Still walk over we set up the rods, the howling gale doing its best to stop us. We had both thought to float fish, but in the conditions dad decided to spin and I went for the bait.
It's very heavy ground and quite snaggy, but I was using 80lb braid and lost negligible tackle. Dad wasn't getting much interest and walked round the bay trying several spots with no luck.
I faired little better I had several bit bites and a couple of runs from good feeling fish, but when push came to shove nothing hooked up and I was left fishless once again.
All told it was a great day out with beautiful if very windy, weather and time spent with the old-man is never bad.
Well and another trip another singing of the Blankety Blank theme tune!
Need to go back again when the wind is down and more and the sea is like this :-)
