Continuing to "work" hard here in the hope of some decent Autumn sport but it hasn't quite turned out that way so far. Travelled to a fishy destination last weekend and put in the hours (Including a 4.00 am start) which resulted in - The Good news - 7 fish.
- The Bad news - all under 2Lbs many of which attacked big lures such as the ever reliable 170mm Daiwa Shore Line Shiner SL 17 F-G and this was from varying locations at various states of tides. Back home and its pretty much been the same, fish landed during night and evening sessions but all small fish, so much for the big Autumn fish that everyone talks about, oh well there's time yet and I'll be trying to make the most of the conditions as usual. Yesterday evening was a head wrecker, raced out ahead of a big storm to find great conditions clean water moderate swell and winds still light, cast into an area which has produced before, got hit on a
DUO Tide Minnow-145-sld-f (H134) and landed (Yes you've guessed it) a small fish, next cast hit again, a better fish, fish takes line picks up weed and manages to shed the lure. Fish for the next hour trying everything I have including switching back to the TM but nothing at all, did the lost fish spook the group it was in and no others were present? I can only presume so, Oh well will sit out the storm that's now raging around the house and give it a rest for a few days...
