micro-window

[alun j.]

I saw a tiny window of opportunity that coincided with HW this morning...all calm at home and live websites confirmed no wind, so set off into traffic at 8.

 

At the quay, 15mins later, am greeted with crashing waves and a nasty easterly wind kicking things up on the Bar .... Ughh !

 

Watched it for 15mins......and it was pretty consistent......so thought better of it and came back home [through more traffic!] for my coffee !

 

Hope for better luck tomorrow.......though that window has closed a bit [it could be a little morning session rather than the whole day].

 

Big tide !!.........water was surging up onto quay.

Al, did you use HSC webcam to look for the breakers on the bar? Not the best camera but ok.

Unlucky Alan!

Good attempt to get out though!

Let's hope it changes soon Alun !

Fisheagle will be venturing out for a short trip on Saturday, mainly to blow the cobwebs away and to check every thing is OK after a few months ashore. Can't see any real fishing being done and will be keeping a sharp eye out for debris. Roll on some decent weather.

I'll be out in the morning........not sure for how long

MegaByte will be out for a couple of hours in the morning, probably stay in the harbour, will have Grandaughter on board. No doubt if anything is caught it'll be her and not me.

Well we went out from 09:00 'til 11:30 and didn't get a bite, just a few crabs. It was a cracking morning to be out, harbour was like glass.  

 

So now sat on the beach at Evening Hill using up the worms. So far exactly the same results as this morning.

Ran out of worms at 21:00 so packed up and came home. It was a smashing evening to be sat at Evening Hill.

Final score. 5 crabs and 1 flounder to Mark (about the same size as his hand).
