Any whiting or Rockling around Ger :roll: . Decent flounders those at 35cms :wink: . I found the fishing to be picking up as well but also went home,there again it was nearly 1am :shock: . I'm sticking to the resolution I made 2 years ago and staying close to home,,,,,no point in driving huge distances for crap fishing when you can get it locally instead :roll: You can remind me of this next time i'm picking up pin whiting in Ennereilly :lol:
