Report:first of all i want to greet you all a happy new year,it's been a while i didn't do a lot of fishing but instead selling my fishing stuff .for a start of a new year and bfore all stuff were gone i planned to fish at the Point for the last time,i meet Allister aka ''last cast lad'' nice meeting you mate to pick up one of my rod 4sale.arrived there 12pm and using one rod a sandspike for rodrest,in no time i cast my first 2010 baited hooks .the sea was so calm and luvly sunshine unto my face,not ideal for seatrout(if you're really targeting them)since im after for the flatfish so my anticitation got low.my bait seating there just a couple of minute then i've got a good knock, i reeled in and there was my first fish of 2010. a lovely seatrout estimated 8 to 10inch .quick picture and back he goes....
i put fresh bait and cast again,loads of miss bite because im using 2/0 hooks.bait seating there for 30 minutes or so and got another good pull resulted a quite bigger seatrout than the first one.and after a long hours waiting resulted another very good size seatrout estimated 4 to 5lbs .and guess for the last one any idea still another seatrout
all in all im very happy to start my new fishing year...
here's the pictures and enjoy
all fish were released........

Hi Zeke, Fantastic fish Zeke not a bad catch for the first sess of 2010 Was out the Monday after Christmas and had a lash of the mag535, great reel, fished 2 rods and all the fish were caught on the 535
I have fished Streeda and Mullaghmore but not Rosses point - what extra would Rosses give me? - coming from Enniskillen? Any directions on where to fish?
