Back out nice and early again this morning.
Baits in the water by 5,55am and sat back watching the rod tips.
A rebait after 20 minutes then back to watching the rod tips.
Here we go.
A rod slammed over and bounced around.
I leap into action just as the rod tip settles.
At this point realising that the disturbance was caused by a Herring Gull not paying attention to what was in its flight path!
Oh well, at least it freed itself.
Another rebait and it's back to watching motionless rod tips for the final 20 minutes of the session.
A nice morning to be out, even if I did blank!
