Nipped over to Ilfracombe pier for a couple of hours this afternoon with Mrs.S.
Took the light gear - 8' spinning rods , light legers and No 4 hooks and worked our way through a 1/4 of Harbour Rag.
Found a nice sheltered spot on the steps just along from the Oldenburgh.
First fish went to Mrs.S - a pretty little Wrasse of about 6oz. She was dead chuffed as it finally broke her duck for this year !!
I had what I thought was a crab on the end of my line until I got it about 3' off the bottom , when it started flapping. As it broke surface it turned out to be a Plaice that came in at about 1 1/4 lbs. Yummy.... guess what I'm having for dinner tomorrow ?
