Back on the Revo

At long last we were back afloat. Our chosen venue is always a challenge and given we were not match fit it was a tiring day. We battled against what is a heavy flow of water, even on yesterday’s tides, for most of the day. The fishing was a little disappointing and I averaged about a fish an hour, it was a long day. It was the kind of day for me that every fish felt like a fluke and I was working out nothing as I was going about it, if that makes sense?  There was hardly any sign of baitfish and nothing happened that would lift our hopes too much that things would switch on. We also gave the surrounding area a good look over as well. It was interesting to note a spot with 5 seals lined up feeding near the shore over the top of the tide. I’ve not had shore session with lures at night for a while, this area is most definitely worth a look.

My intention was to target Tope the next day, the weather window to do this comfortably was about 4am to about 9am. It was hard to leave the van after Saturday’s effort, so I made my mind up and had a few beers, a chat with a couple of anglers I had met, and a lazy Sunday morning on the beach. It was just nice to wake up to a view when I opened my van door.
