Report:arrived a little after 4 o clock and had the first ray on the 3rd cast or so, proceeded to catch the rest of the fish thru the session, no conger unfortunately. finished on a bum note with the two lines being tangled together due to weed....had a fish on one but unfortunately lost both rigs.was getting dark at this stage so packed up and headed home. surprised the ray are still around here at this time of year but not complaining :D
pity this spot was only discovered late in the year as it is by far the best in the estuary at the moment

that looks like a good spot for a bit of crabbing aswell as fishing do you still get a few codling up at foynes during the winter ?

havent fished here during the winter yet this spot was only discovered during the summer and the pier has been closed for the last couple of years..altho think somone on the forum(cant remember who) said they got a 10lber from here a good few years ago....
