Belligero Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Mate it's a bit risky in an ECL especially on the southern beaches. It'll be a wash out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelm Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Big swell right now, it would want to be a good cast, unless you can find a sheltered corner somewhere, your cast will need to be about 1k....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big Neil Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Looks like your plan paid off Mr_clownface...you wouldn't have had to worry about getting your line tangled with other anglers, I presume. Cheers, bn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
