…… it was back to the beach with a couple of mates. Bites from the off with my first 2 casts both producing Coalfish.

Then, from the 3rd cast and almost 4hrs I couldn’t hook another had my life depended on it 🤷‍♂️ Whilst the lads just to my right continued to catch. I was still getting bites and using exactly the same bait but couldn’t connect with anything ☹

At 11:30pm they’d had enough and decided to call it a night, in my stupidity/stubbornness I decided with having today off and bait left to fish on. Just past midnight I caught another 😁

And from then on the Coalfish gates had opened with bites on every cast landing most of them too.

On a couple of occasions the rod didn’t even make it back to the rest the bottom strewn with ravenous Coalie’s!
Hectic as it was and with still a few Ragworm left the heavens opened around 01:30am, so with a final fish on the last cast I packed up and headed for the car a lot…… lot later than planned! 🥴

Great report and pic’s mate. Can be so frustrating not getting the hook ups. I find playing with longer/shorter snoods usually sort the issue out.

Yeah, 💯% agree that swapping snood lengths can help on those occasions, unfortunately I’d only taken a few pre-tied ones last night that were fairly similar to each other.
 
Great session Kevin (y). Glad that staying on after the lads left resulted in plenty more fish for you ;).
 
Never caught one off the Sussex beaches :(, plenty of whiting, codling, doggies, flats, hounds etc etc.

I was talking with a mate in South Wales and they don’t get any down his way either. Great little scrapers on lighter beach tackle.
