could be ,i did go as low as size 4 hooks and we did comment on the lack of flounder and small fish .to be honest shane got 3 pin whiting but i would class them as bait :lol: no doggies :!: just crabs attacking our baits weed was a prob but not enough to stop hooking up, just shockleader weed :?: the water was coloured in close but i put that down to the strong wind blowing northerly during the day :roll:
just looked at those pics of the red tide and to be honest it looks like floodwater from the river ,was in donegal during the worst of the red tide and it does look like it ,have seen the dargle stain the water from bray to greystones after heavy rain too and it didnt affect the fishing ,maybe i,m just crap :lol: :lol:

Jacko1986 and me were just talking about these two phrases last night when busy blanking in poolbeg. You're right you have to stay positive!
Hard luck in greystones lads.
