Flapping Flounder

Sunday saw me heading east for another spot of sea fishing. With less wind than last time things looked good, increasingly so when I spotted other anglers upon my arrival. Fishing was to be from low water to high. Armed with the long rods, tactics were one with a cascade rig at 100 yards or so. The other, with a two hook flapper, was to be fished at 30-60 yards. Baits were lug, squid, mackerel, mussel, in various combinations.

It was a little while before the closer rod’s tip started to bouncing about and a 9” flounder was quickly cranked in. While re-baiting the other rod showed signs of life. The culprit this time being a bait thieving crab. This was all the action I had for the rest of the flood. The others there didn’t do any better.
