mystery shoal

Hi all ,,, yesterday--

Whilst out on mates boat in poole harbour at dusk we saw a huge shoal of fish

feeding on the surface jumping right out of water sometimes

tried spinning into them with all our ammo and no takes

but when i tried my home made baited spinner (see mike ladle) with a rag worm

i hade take after take and had one pull the rod tip right over

tried to set the hook but it jumped right off grrrrr

we could not see what they were as light was going i rekon bass or were they

likely to be mullet ???? fish were all around us for about an hour @ high slack water
