Report:


never caught white trout in the sea before although it was only 6 inches long (at most!) so I'm feeling pretty good. It had about 10 sea lice covering its head which I tryed to remove before putting it back.

A new species for me in fenit!!

seemed to be plenty mackeral around just under the pier

Well done bob. I wonder if sea trout are on the rise again? There seems to be lots around this area at the moment. :D

good man for returning it, say it had only run down from the river a month earlier perhaps. wonder how it got so much sea lice so fast, perhaps there are fish farms nearby where it had been swimming.

anyone got any opinions ?

What river did you think it came from?? Hardly the lee? I'd say it swam down from the cashen what du reckon?

could have come over from the river in brandon that was always a good white trout river. there used to be salmon/ white trout in the lee so it is possible that one or 2 make it back every year !!! its not like anybody is netting it now.

cashen and others most likely i suppose

there were a good few lice onn it a mate of mine caught a rockling with lice on it the last week so they must just be around

there are no fish farms in tralee bay that i know of

hey Rodger hows it goin? :D yeah been out of the fishing loop for nearly 6 months now doing a course Final year so back to it now.
