Ballycastle 3/7/09

#1 Post by Fentster »

People:Me + 3 (Davy, Paul, Kevin)

Duration:1130-1700ish

Tide:High 1640hrs

Weather:Mostly fine, light offshore breeze.

Bait:Rag

Rigs:Float, Ledger

Results:Me-3 Wrasse, 2 Pollack :D . Davy-3 Wrasse. Paul-1 Coalie, 6 Pollack, 6 Wrasse (1 decent one, off the bottom), Kevin-3 wrasse, 1 Pollack.





Report: Not much to say really except a good day had by all. Fish size a bit disappointing but good craic nonetheless and the weather was nigh on perfect for the mark. Was disappointed also to see previous anglers rubbish around the rocks...........WHY? :?: :x

Thanks for the intro on the forum, Fenster, I can't believe this mark for Wrasse, a brilliant day, and to top it all the simplist of fishing, float and ledger! Really enjoyed it! If you's play your cards right I might post my Speciman Bull Huss for a second post!

Oh I, and I concur with the rubbish! Packets and packets of empty trace bags and beer cans. I find this on every mark I fish, absolute disgrace. You know who you are, you should be ashamed!
