lady linda ballycastle bay sunday 16th nov

#1 Post by Al and Jordan »

People: me jordan and ronald surgenor

Duration: 9am - 4.30pm

Tide: all states

Weather: windy and rough but calmed as the day went on

Bait: rag mack squid and launce

Rigs: 2 hook flappers and flowing traces

Results: lots of dogs 2 huss 10 pollock 2 coalies 7 ballen wrasse

Report: upon leaving the harbour the weather was a bit rougher than forecast so we stayed close to shore pollocking. ronald set up for dogs on the bottom and me and jordan got into the pollock. jordan was first into the pollock and ronald got a specimen dog at 3lb 5oz 8) 8) 8) 8) i got 2 coalies who ignored my ragworm and attacked my sparkley orange jelly worm. after a couple more dogs for ronald and pollock for me and the wee man we moved on out and set up for huss. the dogs were coming fast and ronald got a good bend in the rod and was first to land a huss. then jordan got a good knock and up came his first ever huss of about 4lb. we stayed here for a while and got some more dogs, but to round the trip off we went for a couple of drifts over a reef and ronald and jordan got a couple of nice ballen wrasse up to 3lb 9oz and i got a few more pollock. all in all a great day out on seans boat. jordan was hopeing for another good wrasse to see if he could get into next months edition of sea angler again, but no such luck this time. can't wait to see what our next trip throws up :D :D :D :D

If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

Keep it up guys. If Daniel keeps seeing Jordan pulling in fish like that I'll have an excuse to take him out again despite the weather.

I think Waterfoot is on the radar.
