Hats off to Al he couldn't have done anymore for me over the weekend from cooking up a storm during the fishing sessions with hot-dogs burgers etc to supplying the bait freshly dug worms and mackerel cold beers on our return and in the morning (mid afternoon) strong coffee and a fry that would keep an army marching for days ontop drawer stuff

Really enjoyed fishing some new marks with a good variety of species available but most of all the banter and company was first class...
I'll definitely make a trip up again and sample some more of the excellent fishing Northern Ireland has to offer
and Jordan has come on so much since I last fished with him he was pretty damn good before now he's moved up another level handling his 525 with ease and getting good distance to boot much to the chargrin of several anglers at Bangor who couldn't get out to where the mackerel were![]()
Thanks again and my door is always open for when ever you fancy some west coast fishing...

And great pictures to boot. Congratulations Connor on getting your first Cuckoo Ray, the trip was well worth it and your species count got a real boost which is a great result. By the sounds of it Al you were the perfect host. Good on you. Well done Jordan also, your doing brilliantly.
