Last Cast Success

Yesterday was the tail end of the most recent autumn storm. High winds, cold Northerly air, heavy driven showers and mountainous seas, it was the kind of weather you wouldn't put a dog out into so we wrapped up warm and went fishing.
It took a while for the high tide to recede to allow us on to the rocks below the cliffs and a while longer to find an area free of the weed that at low tide was piled high on the rocks.
My last cast resulted in a codling of between 3 or 4lb caught on squid, frozen black lugworm and a small block of cart.
