Having some time off work due to the snow up North I thought i'd give my local beach a bash this lunch time and.... totally blanked
Bait was coming back in untouched every time.
I was changing the bait every 12 - 15 minutes to try and keep the scent at its max but it didn't help

Spoke to a chap who'd been fishing a little further along and he'd managed a small Rockling.
As we were talking we spotted the fins of two slow swimming Porpoise as they surfaced and dived repeatedly and gracefully only 30m away, seemingly without a care in the world.
Blank or not it sure beat sitting at home

Hard luck shaggy

It's a tough life hard luck.

Missing the scotch pies I bet!
