I went out (again!) last night, I wasn’t going to report it but……
I fished a well known low water mark and it produced 3 smaller hounds to 7lbs 7oz before the tide came up too far and forced me off.
I didn’t quite feel my session was enough though so on the way back to the car, I decided I’d have a little stop off on the way home at a local venue I rarely fish but is virtually fishing straight out the back of the car.
I got set up and within minutes my line tore off. The fish was really powerful and stopped me dead on numerous occasions and kept taking line. I fought her to the shore and she went a stunning 12lbs 14oz!
I recast several times but I must’ve just been lucky on the first one as weed wouldn’t let me fish for more than 5 - 10mins at a time before reeling in to clear it.
I packed up shortly after, very glad I made the effort for the little extra!!
