Tide:Dropping (high at 0940)

Weather:calm, sunny

Bait:mackerel strips, cooked prawns

Rigs:Float and 3 hook paternoster

Results:2 pollack

when I arrived, there were guys fishing at the railings, so I set up the float rig and fished over the back of the pier. Got 3 or 4 good bites, but only landed one small pollack

The guys at the railings left after about an hour or so, so I moved over there and put on a 3 hook rig with prawns in the hope of getting a wrasse, but every time I reeled in the prawns were gone. Not sure if it was crabs or just that the prawns were too soft too stay on the hook.

Switched to mackerel, and got another small pollack, straight down the side of the pier.

Good day out.

Report: I decided to give Calliso Bay another try (I fished there earlier last month), but fished from a different location along the beach. It was a nice afternoon to be out - I hadn't been able to get out on Saturday and hadn't got the chance to dig any rag or lug - rag had been successful the last time I fished there - but I did have some frozen black lug and a few crabs (thanks again Shane ).

I got the first bite on the size 6 hook baited with mackerel - at first I didn't think there was a fish on the line but when I reeled in I found I had caught a small shore rockling.

About 20 minutes later I got a dogfish on the same rig - again baited with mackerel.

I switched to the two hook flapper with 3/0 hooks for a while, baited with lug, razor and mackerel. I did get a bite but the other hook must have snagged (it is rough ground there although I was fishing in what is probably the most snag free part of the beach). But the time I got the line free (breaking free the snagged hook) the fish had managed to shake itself off the other hook

I had the three hook flapper on the second rod - baited with mackerel, crab, razor - got two dogfish in quick succession both taken on the mackerel.

About 5.40 pm I got another knock on the rod with the three hook flapper - It first I thought it was a missed bite - there didn't seem to be anything there but when I started to retrieve I could feel a fish on the line - this time it was a 34 cm flounder - taken on crab.
