FLAPPER/FEATHER/FLOAT:

CORKWING WRASSE, PLAICE, FLOUNDER, AND A TURBOT......???:




hit greystones to wet a line for a few hours got there 1730 and set up, first cast brought me a palm sized flounder second cast got a rattle and retrieved a big suprise for the east coast and for me as ive never got one, a small turbot :shock: :shock: :shock: a very welcome little fish in my species hunt for 2008 8) 8) 8) well chuffed. tryed feathering for mack but none about. fished a float and got a corkwing another species but one was enough and decided to concentrat on bait rod as it was getting constant rattles and i missed a good rattle and then a slack line maybe bass :) porbably dog though it didnt look like dog. missed two definate doggys but my session was coming to and end and i was chuffed with turbot. got a small plaice next and decided to finish up. but a lad beside me got a river eel and i need that one too soo tried two last casts :lol: :lol: :lol: but wasnt to be and dinner was getting cold so i was told so wrapped it up very happy with my new species :wink: :wink: :wink: :
