West Bexington 14/10/06

Birdsnest's Dog fish

We turned up at Ferry bridge at around 20.00 but as we reached the top of the shingle to look over it was like the Blackpool illuminations! Lymington angling club had a match there so we headed for Abbotsbury only to be greated by the same. In the end we fished at West Bexington from about 20.30 till 04.00, managed to pick up 300 grams of lug from West Bay and took some squid from the freezer. Birdsnest Master caught a Dogfish and I had a small pout, I lost what felt like a big fish 5-10 yrds from the shore it snagged the bottom! We could see something in the water with our lamps but couldn't make out what it was then my line snapped. North Easterly wind and cloud cover for the whole session, H/W 01.24.
