Sunny Rhyl Sea Fishing Diary

Splash Point , Rhyl - 29/01/2007

Venue - Rhyl, Splash Point
Tide - Low
Time - Day
Bait: Frozen Lug, Fresh Lug, Frozen Mackerel, Frozen Sandeel, Frozen Squid

Armed with a good selection of frozen bait and a couple of packs of great looking fresh Lug(Geoffs, Rhyl) I made my way to Splash Point for low water.

I obviously misread the tide tables as I was expecting to arrive dead on low water. As it turned out, it was 2hrs to low water!!! Not a real problem, just a bit confusing for a while :)

I set up both rods. The 3 hook flappers were out again, so with 6 hookpoints, there was plenty of opportunity to try all the baits.

The sea was calm. There was a light westerly blowing.

It was all quite for the first hour. The first knock went to the spinning rod at close range. A half decent Flounder eventually landed. Caught on fresh Lug.

Low water came and went without any further activity.

1hr after low, there was a little twitch on the beachcaster. Hard to tell if I had anything on until a nice Dab surfed in. Again, taking a liking to Geoffs fresh Lug.

Not much else to report except for a pin Whiting on my final cast. Again caught on the fresh Lug.

There were 2 other people out today. The guy next to me had a Dab and the other had blanked when I spoke to him.

Happy Days !!!!!!!!!!
