I know it was a nightmare the amount of tackle i lost. I want to go again tonight but got to scrimp and scrape a few quid together to buy a few more leads not easy whilst im not working!! Never mind. I might go down Gray wharf tonight instead and give that a bash, not too sure wot its been fishing like down there though??? |

Did you borrow some tape off me?
I was fishing just to the right of the stairs, and the bloke next to me had that tiny bass. |

Had a few touches on my rod that i had baited with a whole squid. But nothing took it.
I was fishing worm on the other rod. Something took it when i cast out and was waiting for it to touch bottom. Line just started ripping off the spool, but before i could turn the handle, it had gone and i was left with a lovely "bird's nest" to untangle.
Didn't see anyone else pull anything else out. |
