Popular Post jonnyswamp Posted May 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2021 A brief report from yesterday Caught the 7 am lock and sat out the last of the flood on the bottom end of a large sandbank a few miles South East of Cardiff Straight into dogs, with some small Blondes and Thornies thrown in the mix, around the 6/8lb mark Slack water around 10am saw the arrival of a few straps up to 10lb ish Not expecting to stay on this mark long into the ebb as it can scream through on a big tide, so called for everyone to reel in about 11.30 and my rod starts bouncing The result was a double figure hound on the top hook and a dog on the bottom hook of a 6/0-4/0 pennel rig Moved into the Rannie area to get out of the tide and all this produced for the last hour or 2 were dogs Low water was around 4pm and a quick chat with barrage control confirmed my thoughts that we would have to get the 2.45 lock at the latest to ensure we had enough water under us Not wanting to be stuck out there until possibly 6 oclock, I erred on the side of caution and went for the 2.15, though the later lock would probably have been ok So a mediocre day, but still good conditions and a bit of a craic Youngest daughters 22nd on Tuesday, so we have a BBQ at ours today I believe it will get messy JonC, Andy135, Maverick and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
