Beach Fishing Report – Catherine Hill Bay
Report by Ben Withford
Location: Catherine Hill Bay
Date: Saturday 11th April
With my first go at co-ordinating I was really happy to have a total of 16 coming along A picture perfect sunny Autumn day was enjoyed by everyone.
Fishing proved to be difficult due to massive cross currents and pounding waves on shore. But we all managed to get a fish or two. Unfortunately Dart seemed to be taking baits before anything else had a chance. Despite that the atmosphere and camaraderie made it another memorable club outing. We finished at 11:30 Great to see everyone helping each other. to the Catho Pub for lunch where I presented awards for the day.
