Re: papa dont preach we went to south beach
sounds like a nice session, well done. 30cms is a nice average size whiting too

Re: papa dont preach we went to south beach
papa dont preach ,
we went to south beach,
further south on the map,
the weather was crap,
thats to put it mildly,
further south in Ennereilly
Rain, rain and more rain,,,,followed by gales and lightning
Still better than Xfactor though
Well done lads

Re: papa dont preach we went to south beach
wasnt a bad session. thought there would have been a few more dogs- they were around for the last two weeks. the weed wasn't to bad. just the wires on the grips catching it on retrieve. good size to the whiting and we've had them in good numbers last little while too with no pins. the thunder was serious stuff i could hear it through my two hats
how did yee get on eyes? any fishies?

It's usually the same for us down here Al. Fished it twice with Mark in the last few weeks and no Pins at all
Same happened last year and then they returned to normal size
