Me and me owld mate Hooker and his better half Jude decided we would give Hendon Prom a shot. We were meeting at 9am to fish the tide up and a couple of hours down.
I was late getting there, I blame the Guinness and the evil rum and black in the club on friday night.... Anyhoo. When I got there Hooker and Jude were set up.
I had a couple of paracetamol and set up meself. The sun was shining and everything was well with the world.
We even saw a few swallows and other birds collecting nesting material, Me owld mate Hooker decided to join em..
There was nowt biting till high tide around 12ish, I caught a small flounder.
Jude had been exploring for a bit as we had never fished the venue before.
She then decided to come back and show us how it was done. with a cracking bite she pulled in a nice plaice.
It went 36 cm
I caught a small codling after that and poor owld Hooker had to be content with Les Dawsons booby prize.
As the tide ebbed Jude still continued to persevere. but to no avail.
We chucked it around 4pm. The sun was hot, the wind was light and we all had a cracking day oot... except Hooker who had a face like a well smacked arse... not because of the suntan... because he caught nowt and their lass had...
Fish caught on lug tipped with squid or mackerel.
Great company and good craic made the day..
