Sunny Rhyl Sea Fishing Diary

Kinmel Bay - 20/05/2008

Venue - Kinmel Bay
Tide - High
Time - Day
Bait: Fresh Lug, Fresh Peeler Crab

Driving to work this morning I spied 2 people fishing Splash Point over low.

It was a great Sunny Day and to see a few out at 6am got my mind out of work mode and straight into fishing mode.

I did a few hours but could resist the urge no longer.

Straight to Kinmel Bay via Geoffs Tackle.

I asked for 2 packs of Lug and 4 Peeler Crabs.

I walked out with a bonus 4 Softies that were given for free.

Top blokes!!!!!!!

So with the best bait this side of the Fforyd Harbour I felt that a couple of Schoolies could be on the cards.

My mind even flicked to the image of a shore caught Smoothound...........

Anyway, dream sequence over and it was back to reality!

Conditions were warm and calm.

2 rods were out but I was having problems with my Shakespeare Summit fixed spool reel. It was sort of ......knackered!

Retrieval was a major problem.

Luckily ( :) ) I didn't hook into anything to really test the bearings!

In the end, the Bass and Smoothies remained just a dream.

No bites and no fish.

Happy Days!!
