so standing on rocks shouting bite me doesn't work.
Tally of catch.
Whales 0 (one floating around somewhere)
Sharks 0
Fish in general 0
Big fuck off boulder easily a ton 1 (on back cast)
Even bigger boulder hiding under water that I first thought "Shaaaark" like what you see on those youtube things. 1 (and 1 bent hook)
Back of own head/face/neck/arm 0 (so actually winning)
Then it got windy and free parking was running out.
Things I learnt against my will.
The floating line does float, but as per internet reviews doesn't cast too well, do have a more slippery weight forward intermediate line to try.
Forget if windy and on rocks.
If you can turn and use the wind to your advantage, gain extra cast = winning
The flies do glint and sparkle in the water, which was fine until the surf chopped up the silt as the wind picked up.
