cheers drew,it was a cracking fish and really made my day after having so much trouble with cheap line,are you def for heading to the meet k2? the walk is hard but as you can see its worth it,there is an easier spot to fish just before the the hardest part of the walk,which might suit anyone who doesn`t fancy going the whole way round

Dont try to fish in anything more than a 3.3m tide ,the times are the same as belfast roughly, most of our fish came on a dropping tide with the run of water going right to left past us ,but this changes direction a couple of times throughout the day :?

Would I be able to spin at this mark ? Might give it a go if I can - myself and 2 others off the forum would be interested if spinning was possible - might give it a go even if it's not.
