Conor: Mackerel, pollock and shanny.
Craig: rockling, Wrasse and shanny.






Report: Gonna make my first report a short one. We all headed for Dun laoghaire and fished the end of the west pier for about 4 hours. It was a good day with all of use catching fish including a new PB wrasse for me which folded my rod over when I lifted it up the wall. My cousin Craig caught a surprise rockling on float fished rag which was a decent size. Conor put on a set of feathers and caught 1 pollock and 2 mackerel. We caught about 35 fish between us mainly small wrasse. Have a picture of the wrasse but its on my uncles phone so can't put it up.
