Ennereilly 1st May ,

#1 Post by eyesreilly »

People:me and Neil(Fishface)

Duration:7pm-11-45pm

Tide:high approx 9pm(according to Fishface :roll: )

Weather:breezy but dry

Bait:crab, lug,rag,squid

Rigs:pulleys and flappers

Results:Neil,1xBass, 1x weeverfish,1x codling, 1x whiting
Me, 3 x pin whiting :cry:




Report:After 2 weekends fishing calm water we were looking forward to a bit of a surf at Ennereilly. Nearing the beach I was being waved at and flashed at by all the locals :shock: . "Surely they dont recognise me", I joked to myself but then the reason became apparent,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Horses on the road :shock: .Neil was already there when i arrived, and some guys introduced themselves as Tightlines and his brother, who were out for a marathon session, complete with tent and accessories. Neil was delighted to be recognised and never shut up about them not recognising me all night :roll: :roll: ,but i'm used to him so it was water off a ducks back to me.

The skies darkened overhead but the storm clouds passed by , heading South towards Courtown. We fished away for an hour or so when Fishfaces rodtip gave a violent shake,,,fish on. He lifted into it and soon landed a nice little bass :wink: He shouted to all and sundry that he had caught a bass,he's so humble :roll: . I went over to take a piccie and suggested that he clean the sand off first :wink: .He went to the waters edge and tried to wash the sand off but the crafty fish nicked him in the finger and Neil let go. I cracked up as Neil dived into the water after him and ended up on all fours in the surf :lol: .

With the Bass released whether he wanted to or not Neil and I got back to the serious stuff of catching fish.Nothing could distract us from this, not even another car getting stuck on the beach :roll:

Bites were almost nonexistant in the stiff breeze but Neil landed a few more fish, a nice little codling on crab and a whiting. Lucky for him he recognised the next fish as a weever, and handled it accordingly :shock: .There was a good surf on and as the tide started to recede we hoped for a few decent fish but it wasnt to be. I had 3 pin whiting for my troubles,saving the blank. I never have much luck at Ennereilly but between nudists, horses , cars getting stuck and now Fishface testing out his Floatation suit, i've had a few laughs there :lol: :lol: Roll on next week :shock:

I didnt get much of his attempted catch and release but i've made the most of what I got and its only fair that I share it here :wink:

sorry dave ,that should be third bass of the year, at least i found out that the flotation suit works, although a wet boot and a wet sleeve all night is not that comfortable, still a bass is a bass , with the tide and sea the way it was im stunned as to why we did not catch more fish, and nice to meet you tightlines
