As there was a break in the current weather I decided on a last minute trip to Hunstanton (sailing club ramp area), arrived three hours before high tide to find a deserted beach which didn't surprise me given the current cold, wet and windy conditions.
The sea looked good and well coloured so hopes were high, got the fork out to get myself a few worms for the session, as the tide was on the flood digging a few worms was easy, 20 worms soon appeared in the bait tray which would be enough for the session as I could only fish until just before high tide as my football team were at home today.
With the colour of the sea I expected a bit of weed and was surprised to find no weed.
Tackle was a 2 hook flapper (size 1 hooks) on rod 1 and a 1 hook clip down (size 1/0 hook) on rod 2.
With the exception of unseen crab/small fish activity the rods just sat there for 90 minutes (bait changes every 30 minutes) until 11:50 am when I had a good pull down on rod 2 which was cast at 60 yards but the bite never materialised and spent the next hour drinking my coffee before packing up at 1 pm.
The weather was wind NW 12 mph, temperature 3 degrees and sunny.
High Tide 13:15 (5.8 m)
