Proof that getting drunk instead of an early night for fishing sometimes, and I mean sometimes is better. Maybe you should have tried that secert mark in Arklo?!!!!!!!! Oh nuts :oops:

it is bad alright... thinks it's given me the blues :lol: we fished ballymoney today and it was slow. lads came down later and had a good few coalies and codling but we were bored. headed to arklow for a little while and found out where the pin whiting have been hiding :lol: i'm sick of wearing termals, fleeces, jackets... and washing multiple pairs of socks :shock: why wont my mother do it for me? she does it for my dad and she dosen't even like him :lol:

Fished ballymoney nth from around 5.15 to 9pm, 1st few casts in daylight nothing, but as darkness fell the fish came on the feed. Had 20 fish in total, just 2 small codling at distance all night :( but had 18 fish in close, 1 rockling, many codling/coalies and 2 flounder. Biggest fish was a miserly 27cm fluke but atleast it pipped brians 25cm codling so I won a fiver :D and I was kept warm catching a few.

Only my 2nd time out this year so its good to blow the cobwebs off with a few fish.

Oh............not a pin whiting in sight by the way :mrgreen:
