skip i found the lug and black lug tipped with small bits of squid worked for me . i know all the lads had lug because there is a rag ban till 28th of feb. also speices i got were dabs, flounder, whiting, rockling, codling, dogfish . in all id say i caught 70-80 fish but only 20 of them were counters. only had one blank cast all day nearly all triple shots or double shots. i was at peg 1 and rocker the winner was at peg 2 they were at the pier (north) end of the beach. :roll:

sounds like the beach in arklow is producing well even if the size of fish is small it beats getting nothing sounds like a whiting on a 6/0 hook could turn up something interesting :idea:
