After concentrating on lure fishing for the last few months, it was time for a change last night. The plan was for Sam to catch his first smoothhound, and I had settled on a mark which can throw up some very nice fish, with a double figure hound a distinct possibility.
We arrived dead on low water, armed with a good selection of bait, consisting of fresh wild rag, along with frozen peeler and hermit crabs, squid, sandeel and frozen prawns, so it was a case of just add fish
.
Unfortunately things were very quiet until dusk, when sport belatedly picked up.
Our main target species failed to appear but Sam wasn't bothered in the slightest, as he was completely made up with his brace of small thornbacks, his first ever rays
, and a couple of small whiting.
As for me, I caught a solitary small ray,
plus 3 dogs, but despite the lack of anything particularly exciting, I just enjoyed getting out and spending some quality time with one of my boys again

No problem in the future.
