18th dec Fort Vic.

Arrived at Fort Vic for 4.30pm,set up right by the dolphin, the tide was still on the way out, scattered cloud and a light but freezing wind from the North-East.
Bait was whole Squid on 6/0 pennel pulley or spider crab and Squid wrap.
All was quiet till just gone 7pm when I had a typical cod bite, big pull round, slack line then pulled round again.
I struck and was into a good fish, heavy weight and typical head shaking, it was coming in nicely until 20 yards out I hit a snag, couldn't budge it and ended up losing the fish and the rig.
Well I fished on till just near high water,which was 11.34pm, but apart from one doggie nothing else, frozen I called it a night.
