Re: 19 may sea trout session
no way taz. the only fish that you got was nicked by a seal 
  
   
well, you know what they say man. "sometimes you're the worm, and sometimes you're the fish" and no fecker ever equated a seal into the mix
  
  
 . but 5 trout for your mate was a blinding result 
 what baits were they taking man?

Re: 19 may sea trout session
Was on the Co. Down coast myself on Sunday. Managed to land 4 small sea trout on the fly despite the v bright weather! Were a few bigger ones among them that i hope will be more obliging next time  
Ran out of Baltic Specials and gadgets or i might have had a few more- by F those fish have sharp teeth that are none too kind on my flies. Might have to add a kevlar ribbing to them in the future!!
