Good evening one and all . Well after seeing the vampires earlier taking my blood I said to custard I'm off out whipping water "go on them feck off and give me some peace and quiet" was her reply. So I left the house at 6 and was at my Destination at 5 past. Here's the view from the top . I made my way down the steps to the bottom in good time well as fast as my knee would allow. Once on the beach it was where the feck do I start?.
So I made my way slightly to the right of the rocks This is only my second time lure fishing and I'm trying to teach myself by watching you tube vids and reading reports on tsf. I started using a white patchinky one first chucking it all over the place nothing had a few sea gulls dive at the fecka but they missed it. I moved further along to the left as informed about getting feckall move along. I put on a weedless lures and it kept coming back with weed all over it not the hook but around the swivel so gave up on that idea.I'm whipping the water doing a fast retrieve and a slow retrieve pausing the retrieve you name it I was trying to put everything I learned so far into action nothing on the seakers or pencil things nowt. so I went back onto the patchinky ones tried every colour I had nothing, but I've learned how they move with certain rod actions and different speeds of retrieve. I had a few more near misses off the seagulls having a go then gave up. Now for the bit I dreaded The start of the journey up doesn't look much but these are steep, good job there's a bench half way up I was breathing in and out of holes I shouldn't of been. I sat for 5 mins here's a view towards Hartlepool that's the famous Steetly Pier in the distance. I finally made it to the top and back to the car home in 5 mins Wahoo. Currently sat having a cafferys then going in the shower and bed. I would of stayed down if it wasn't a school night as I was enjoying myself just messing about and being out the house till the next time have fun. Sorry for the long write up hopefully next time I'll break my bass virginity on lures and have some proper pics .
