Not an advert.
I will admit it is not the greatest of reports though.
Samo might expand a bit on his report.

Not an advert Donal we had a great days fishing just taught id let a few people know we landed two specimen Spurdogs. so if you were thinking of heading out for them they are there.

link was put up because i aint got any pictures however they are up on Kitt Dunnes Web Site.

also if anglers were interest in fishing for them and do not have a boat it directs them towards a great service.

Hope yous have a good day have a look at the tide before yous head out we had a very strong tide running which limited the fishing a little but if yous are fishing a slack tide yous should be fine. fresh herring seemed to be the best bait on the day.

Hi John,

i think it dropped off to around 40 was pretty deep but we could only fish it for around two hours because of the run.
