Sunny Rhyl Sea Fishing Diary
Splash Point , Rhyl - 05/08/2007
Venue - Rhyl, Splash Point
Tide - Low
Time - Day
Bait: Fresh Lug, Dexter Wedge
I arrived at low water and immediately set about finding some bait.
With not many worms showing, it was a bit of a struggle, but eventually I had enough for at least a few hours fishing.
I cast out a 3 hook flapper, with 1/0's baited with half a worm on each hook.
I setup the spinning rod and gave the Dexter Wedge a go.
A nice way to spend a sunny summers day, but there was nothing doing on the spinner.
The baited rod was equally quiet.
The tide was pushing me back and I cast out another fresh trio of worms and walked it back.
I had a small twitch that led to me reeling in.
Definately something on, but alas it was lost halfway in.
A tightly tangled rig had 'Eel' written all over it.
There ware 3 other lads out.
It was a similar story for them. They had a Silver Eel but not much else.
I decided to throw in the towel when I got frustrated at the umteenth holiday bather decided to take paddle right infront of my rod.
I guess that's to be expected fishing here on a Sunday in the middle of Summer.
Happy Days !!!!!!!!!!
