prom next to crawleys

[mardenq]

had some fresh crab that needed using or freezing so went down the prom at 3,fished upto high water at 5 then another half hour.first three chucks got me three fish first 2 were size and had took the hook right down so kept them for tea then the third cast got a much better knock 2nd time using my penn affinity and could tell it was a better fish.didnt want to chance pulling it up and over fence so walked down slope to crawleys and pulled it onto the steps.not as big as I first thought but 2 other lads were coming down the slope to fish when I was pulling it in and one of them (davy) had some scales,it went 4lb 4oz,best upto now,started using fixed spool and braid this spring and find it spot on.
