Method: Running ledger (rotten bottom)
Bait: Frozen calimari squid, frozen mackerel seqments.

The Session: The conditions felt ok but almost immediately after setting up the wind speed began to increase as did the swell. All I had were a couple of bites on the frozen mackerel which was cast around 50 yards out. I packed up early as the wind appeared as though it would increase a lot more.
