Report:Headed to portrush for my first trip of the year, was told i was mental by the wife but of course i knew better..... :oops: :oops: . had to drive through snow and sleet to get there and was greeted by snow and sleet when i arrived. :evil: . met the lads and then set up the gear, lasted about 20 mins before i moved down below the harbour wall for shelter. fishing was slow but managed a codling and whitting double followed by being frozen then a pouting and coalie, all fish were on the small side of big but was just happy to be out :D :D :D . a phone call from the wife telling me that there was wine in fridge and a curry on the way i decided to head for home and thaw out :) :) .not sure what the lads finnished up with but can at least report that blanks were avoided all round :D :D :D

no picture's as my fingers were to cold the find the wee buttons... :( :(
