Fished there last Sunday 6:30 am - 10:00 - blanked - easterly wind , rough.
Spinning out towards the reef & free line a floated bunch of rag.

Week prior on the Sunday same time - it was like the med' - flat calm, sun shining - took three Pollack , 1/1/2 after high - 2 hours on float fished rag' - sliding rig set to approx' 15ft drop. Fished tight in against the rocks , light spinnin tackle - great fun.
Went down on the Staurday for a butchers - bloke there had a couple of Coalfish, 3 doggies & a small tope - all on sandeel.

Large shoals of sand eels could be seen hour after high on the Sunday - "sheltering" in the left hand side rocks that form the small, deep pool on the left.

Chap in Tenby Angling reckons it's good for Plaice & Turbot - casting out at 45 degrees avoiding the rough - 50 yds out or so.

R/H - Rag ' - dug fresh from Tenby Market!

Hooked two/three up through the head with the float rig, most people tend to reccomend one - but if I was a fish - the site of 3 worms wriggling for their lives in front of me would do it!!!!

Week previous my mate tries same technique but with belly of Makc' - not a sniff. Reckon at the right time though it would work.

Do you know if you get Macky here?
