Back in the swing

after what seems like a lifetime i finally found a bit of time to go and chill out fishing,so loaded the bike,rods,rucksack into the car and headed down to Swanscombe picking up a score of rag and sml pack of squid from Dolphin.Got out to the point about 1 1/2 before hw and was met by a strong s/westerly that made bite detection hard...in fact i didn't see a bite all session although i didn't blank.About 20 mins after my 1st cast i reeled in my 2 hook flapper which i had put out just left of the lighthouse to find a sml flounder had taken my rag/squid tip without me knowing,15 mins after that i reeled in a sml bass on my single size 1 rig which i had put out a bit further right of the l/house then about a 1/2 hr after high i had another sml flounder,so i was well happy with the result and will be getting down there whenever i have a few hrs to spare.Hopefully i'll be able to make time to get to some of the meets this year and become a more active member again
