[fishermannum1]

[b]People me and the son

[b]Duration 10.30 to 4.30

[b]Tide riseing/droping

[b]Weather great

[b]Bait mack;/squid

[b]Rigs two hook flappers/pullys

[b]Results scorpin fish and tow many puckers




[b]Report we headed off to Dunaff to try a couple of marks for the whiting and codling,
no joy, for soon as the bait hit the water the puckers were away with it. afther an hour in i got one scorpin fish, after that it was all puckers on every cast. they got that bad that we decided to move on to another mark, so we moved on up the road to lenan pier, condishions were perfect, tide was perfect, but the fish were not playing ball, not even one bite i guess it was just one of those days that lenan hands out to you every so ofen but we enjoyed the day out and cant wait for the next one....

Great weather - shame about the lack of fish.
And as Keith asked what is a "pucker"?

we were going to call the trip off, for when we were going the place was covered in ice and it was freezing, but when we landed at Dunaff it was like steping off a plane into a summers day the floatie suit stayed in the car, jumpers were off and we sat in our tee shirts, and we were still sweating!!!! when we came back into Derry it was still covered in ice
as for the pic's, i got myself a new camera, its a kodak z1012 is 10.1 mp HD video, it was my first time useing it...

They're brilliant photo's Don, you have some scenery up there, I must try to get up your way for a tan before christmas!

[Al and Jordan]

i thought they were holiday snaps at first we fished the antrim coast yesterday and it would have froze the nads off ya. just a pity there were'nt more fish about for you both but getting out on a day like that at this time of year is truely amazing. a good fish would have just been a bonus

[saltydog]
