Trip to Balcary

[lambtonworm]

Just returned from a short trip to the Flat Rock at Balcary,pretty much short and sweet,weather was evil,onshore wind and a combination of heavy rain or drizzle with the odd dry patch (at most five minutes spells ) as for the fishing Dogs,Dogs and more Dogs the highlight of our three hour session was a Nice Coalfish of 3lb 6oz to Gary (Spongebob) but conditions beat us this time as the Sea was picking up all the time so we called it a Day.

Was aimed at me that one I think. You've got a good memory Kev as that was way back in 1989. IIRC mine was about 3lb off the north drum casting about 10 yards with a little spinning rod, was in a club comp, fishing next to John Lovett. I was pulling in the coalies on ragworm while nothing was touching his crab. My fish won me the match and the kit-kat off John and was also the club record for a while.
