Not sure where you got the info from but any size pollack :o :o off the beach at Ballinwilling is a rare thing.

You have a good chance of a 12lb. Painted Ray off that beach. :lol: 8)

You may have got your lines crossed a bit here :oops: . West of Ballycotton there's a Ballywilliam rock where you have a chance of a 12lb. pollack but that mark is about 2 miles out to sea
