Well another trip out organised to try and get a cod or two for the table. Jim, Brad and myself planned to meet up just past Elephant Rock. Jim and Brad were going to get there early to book the spot and then I was to follow once I'd been freed from the shackles of work.
So dark a clock when I arrived and after a wee hike along the cliff top and down the field, wee scramble and there I was on the rocks with the guys. They'd been there about two hours, had a few bites but nothing landed as yet. Quick to set up the rod and get a bait out quick smart as ever. It was a fairly quiet night bite wise but after an hour Jim had a bit of a disaster his line caught round his night light and stripped off his tip eye from his rod. Nightmare as he had no spare with him.
Deciding to fish on was a good decision as next cast for Jim went, nod, nod, nod and resulted in a nice 5.4lb Cod. Soon Brad was into action as well with a reasonable 2lber. Second cast with his broken rod Jim had a second cod, this time around 6.5lb. 3 fish in a 20 mins period and that was that unfortunately on the fish front. An amazing night sky and some good banter made an enjoyable night but another blanker for me.
