Thanks for the replies all

Unfortunately and as we expected, the next match at Llanfairfechan beach on Sunday evening wasn't anywhere near as exciting as the rover 
.
The first 3 hours and 55 minutes were very quiet, with just a couple of missed bites and 1 mini thornback too small to weigh in for yours truly

On the plus side, at least we weren't distracted from admiring a stunning sunset

The last 5 minutes though were extremely exciting.................. not really! 
With 7 anglers fishing for 4 hours, and casting at least 250+ baits in that time, the law of averages meant that something had to turn up eventually and with literally about 2 minutes to go, a very timid nod on Steve A's rod signalled that something might just have found his bait 
. Then on the stroke of 10, those golden orbs worked their magic once more and he actually reeled in a doggie! 
Unfortunately for Steve, he didn't have it all his own way and I also landed a last minute dog to put the pressure on 
. Sadly for me, it was too little too late and my catch only weighed 0.53kg, compared to 0.60kg for Steve's fish 
.
That wasn't the end of the story though, as at the other end of the beach Ady had also caught a last minute dog, which at 0.74kg was enough to push Steve and I back to 2nd and 3rd place respectively ?.
So that's it now until the bank holiday weekend, when we'll be hoping for just a few more fish at the next match
