Lenan pier 16.10.09

#1 Post by last cast lad »

People:me

Duration:6.00-10.00pm

Tide:falling

Weather:clear sky mild and flat calm water

Bait:rag, mackeral

Rigs:2 hook flapper

Results:5 flounder, 2 pouting, 3 dogfish, missed a reasonable congor




Report: Work brought me to inishowen yesterday so somehow rods, tackle box and bait all ended up in the van :?: honest they just seemed appear. I finished up work just after high tide so didn't want to spend too much time finging a way onto rock marks which I didnt really know, so I chanced going down to Lenan, a pier which according to reports can be a bit hit or miss. First cast had double of small flounder and pout/pouting( :?: which is it, both seem to be commonly used). nothing big all evening flounders got no bogger than 25cm so nothing for the pan :( About 9.30 dogfish showed up after everything else seemed to stop, 3 on the trot as quick as I could reel them in so I headed home. Nice to get out fishing again.

well done ,
but those flatties are defo dabs as the eyes are larger and if you look closely the lateral line has the typical semi circle bend ronnd the pectoral fin at the gills .
if it cant get its jaws round a 1/0 its not worth catching [ mullet excluded ]
