I think the important thing is not to get discouraged (easier said than done I know) and to vary your location and techniques, and keep mental notes for future use.

I blanked the other night fishing at the same spot, bait, rigs, distance and the same state of tide that I caught six fish on two nights previously. Go figure.

My own thoughts are that unless a fish hooks itself we miss a lot of bites that are very timid or gentle. I often have an "is it or isn't it" moment when the rod appears to be moving a little uncharacteristically but not necessarily enough to warrant trying a strike. Sometimes its a tough call...

It's a big old sea and the right place at the right time has a lot to do with success IMHO.

As I've said before, I'd rather be fishing and blanking than not fishing, but it can become disheartening sometimes.

Good luck !

Its the time of year,most of the fish are away spawning.
There will be Dabs and Flounders.
Just forget your 4/0 hooks and use size 1,s and 2,s.
Smelly blacks tipped with macky for the above.

set up for scratching about small hooks

Build some nice flattie rigs today plenty of beads, Big beach rod + slosh going away for a while going to use light flattie rod and light lure rod now.
