Sligo ROCK....

#1 Post by zeke »

went out yesterday to my favorite mark to wet the line,it's almost 2 weeks i did'nt go out due to my wife condition(she's under go tonsillectomy surgery)...so i miss alot of lovely sunshine :mrgreen: arrived there and armed with two rods and bucket of baits,newly dug lug worms,mackerel and squid...rigs i used my home made four boom paternoster,first cast with lug,mackerel and squid...in just a few minutes i can see the rod tip bouncing loads of fish down there and lug worms do the damage.
result:
countless Codling
10 Collies
2 Plaice

so here's the pictures and enjoy watching :wink: :)
