Bridges of Ross, West Clare, 19th. May 2008

People: Ross

Duration: 1.5 hrs

Tide: around L.W.

Weather: Mild, bright, slight S.E. breeze

Bait: Peeler Crab

Rigs: 1 Hook dropper

Results: 5 Ballan Wrasse




Report: Arrived around Low Water and fished a mark south of the Car Park which allows fishing only in the calmest of conditions. Wrasse straightaway around the 3 lb. mark! A pod of Dolphins arrived and started leaping out of the water in front of me! The wrasse kept biting and I had a total of 5 in a short session before the tide forced me to retreat! Best fish about 3.5 lbs.
