barmouth co antrim 9/8/09

#1 Post by carp angler »

People: myself, alan, jamie

Duration: 9 hrs approx

Tide: incoming, high, outgoing

Weather: dry, calmish

Bait: rag, mackerel, sand eel

Rigs: 2 hook flappers, float, spinners, traces, flies

Results: 2 lsd, several spricks




Report:got to the barmouth on castlerock side, set up the roda and within ten minutes, i had a doggy, and very soon after alan had a doggy. nothing much happened after that, except for the spricks. everything was tried and jamie even tried with the fly rod to see if anything would take. plenty of mullet swimming past but we hadnt any mullet gear with us.
also there was a seal or two, and a porpoise (spelling???) and wether this had an effect on the fish, i dont know, but i am sure it didnt help. anyway, we still had a good day out

nice one man on getting a few fish. that mark can be a hard one to get a fish from at times. seems like it's either a feast of a famine sort of spot :roll: :roll: :roll:
