The wind had been howling all day and the fishing reports coming in were not good but for some reason I decided to brave the wind and the spray to fish the Gunfleet Sailing Club at Clacton-on-Sea on a neap tide. I fished between the slipway and the pipeline with two rods from 5pm to 10pm with Black Lugworm and some very large Ragworm, hoping the wind had maybe livened up the fishing but the fish just weren't playing. I had only one bite all night which turned out to be a Rockling of about 8oz. So much for my Cod season!
