There's still the odd cod about. I got one over 2lb on Monday night from near the steels. The mud hole's a funny place. You can either lose loads or no gear, depending on where you're fishing.

Waste of time fishing from that point, your fishing over mainly hard rock with very little or no bait to tempt the fish in, you may catch only the odd fish.
Try the middle of the bay (thats between where you were and the most nrtherly point) short to medium lobs with big baits, or the most Northerly point.
