Hey guys,
Sorry for the late report but life's been busy so hadn't had time. I popped out with a mate to Brighton pier from 6pm to 8:25, all released except two pinkies and we set out paternoster rigs with prawns on one hook and pilly cubes on the other. We threw out a burley cage filled with chicken feed, and while we waited I cast out a metal vibe, and at around 6:50 I caught a small flattie on it, returned. It was then that the bait rods began going off in quick succession and we caught 5 pinkies. 2 went for 42cm exactly, and the others were 45, 46 and 44cm. They were very fat!
Very rewarding land based session,
Cheers!

nice that's a cracker haul mate, well done.

Doing better than most people in boats....(I thought anything over 40cm was a snapper?)

That’s a great catch from lb mate. At that size they are nice and fat and chunky!
Nice work and enjoy the feed!
Cheers :thumbsup:

They looked young, didn't have a that bump on their heads

definition seems to change with the wind.

I recall a debate here some time ago as to when a pinky is not a pinky and is a snapper.

Good session mate
