Sunrise 6:06 AM GMTDT, Sunset 8:06 PM GMTDT
Moonrise 6:56 AM GMTDT, Moonset 7:52 PM GMTDT
Low Tide: 8:04 AM GMTDT 0.6 feet
High Tide: 1:59 PM GMTDT 12.7 feet
which happens to coincide with the biggest weekend tide for a few months, so it'll give us more of the beach to fish...
And this if what we're after.....
1lb 9oz Turbot caught by Codmuncher from the same beach on 26th July 2008
Meet up at 9am and fish on from there....
Location: Scotstoun / Kirkton Beach (ABOUT 3 MILES NORTH OF PETERHEAD)
Target Species: TURBOT, Flounder, Plaice, Dabs and maybe the odd rogue Sea Trout and/or Bass
Rigs: 2 / 3 hooker flappers, size 4, 2, 1 or 1/0 hooks
Baits: Mackeral, Worms, Squid, Bluey, Sandeel
Parking: (If travelling from the South) North of Peterhead, before St Fergus, turn right at the signpost for the Cemetery. Park either by the old cemetery and walk the short distance (5 minutes) thru the dunes to the beach. (Enough parking for 6 - 8 cars), or follow the track (bit rough in places, so take it easy and mind your exhaust ) from the Cemetery along to left (enough parking for 10+ cars)
If your travelling from the North, work it out for yourself by reversing the above directions :doh:
The beach is clean but does sometimes get a bit weedy after a blow - tackle loses should not be high.
Should be a good craic. I'm not running a list - so just turn up if you want and we may run some light hearted sweeps etc on the day if people are interested :thumbs:
If anyone needs any more info PM me
