When I went I thought or was under the impression is wasn't to bad, 4 cramps in my thigh just getting back up the bloody "hill" lol.
Saying that its mainly walking, 1 gap that looks alittle doubtful but its perfectly fine, its the step of faith rather than our leap. put your foot out and fall forward lol..
We didn't have that much biting (or rather I didn't) but if you could choose a place to blank, that would be the place. oh yeah and the rock are really slippy when wet as said, so be safeSpecies: Cod, Bass, Coalie, Flounder, Dab, Rockling, Mackerel, Plaice, Pollock, Ballen Wrasse, L/S Scorpion, Common Blenny, Weaver (unfortunately), Whiting, Common Eel, Trout, Pike... think that's it
