The harbour has been fishing well in recent months.
Had this fella back end of october.
Weighed in at .700 kg and was almost 41cm.
Taken from the boat on a sliver of mackerel.

Re: Specimen Dab - Cork harbour
Cracking fish Jim, got your seat booked at the speci awards for another year.
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

Re: Specimen Dab - Cork harbour
Lovely dab man, well done
The finest gift you can give a fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"
