Then it started raining just to test me, I was just about to pack up, but I had 20 lug left, and thought it is Coddy, hell why not. It was an hour to high water, and I only had bed to look forward to. Lugworm sausages were presented on 6/0 manta and 3/0 pennal. I hit the baits as hard as I could into a very stiff side wind, as the surf spray soaked me. Well I had to continue fishing for a bit at least, I had 2 more bites after that, my Bass actually turned up, better late than never, both were around 35cm, a nice size, and end, to the night."
