Wrasse and Pollock 02/06/11

Had a good few hours fishing yesterday
with wrasse up to 3lb and a couple of pollock of
i suppose 1.5 to 2lb
The sun was splitting the trees and not a breadth of wind
when i got to my first mark and I thought for sure I was
into fish and i was second or third cast nice red ballan of 3lb
on a samuwara bullet worm, I thought great nice start but after an hour
or so of nothing more it was like the fish completely switched off
I moved on to a new mark on a low tide with nice deep holes and gullies
for me to drop the lure into tried the samuwara worm again but nothing
so i switched to an xlayer baits blue and it made an almost instant change
with a fish of 2lb coming next followed by another and another
I then switched to a 2inch senko type worm which got lots of interest
but only one take from a fish of about 0.5lb

all in all a total of 8 wrasse and a couple of pollock didnt
take pictures of them all because the markings were
very similar kind of kelpy orange colour seems to be the
most common colour variation of the wrasse around
Wexford but youve got to love the fight they put up no matter
what size certaintly keeping me entertained while the bass ban is
on.
On another just ordered a new lrf rod today a major craft
solpora so the wrasse and bass should be good crack on that
when i get in a few weeks.
I'm waiting on a bag of goodies from http://jackslrf.co.uk/
which should be nice i'll post a full report soon as i get them
