Duration: 16.30-21.00
Tide: falling & then risinh
Weather: Brilliant
Bait: Feathers & then mackerel
Rigs: various
Results: Mackerel, Pollock , ling and bass
Report: Picked Billy and his daughter Rea (10) up in Ardmore and set out straight to try for mackerel. At last they seem to have arrived in their droves and we were catching 6 at a time
.With bait on board we decided to head for a wreck. Billy had never caught a ling. I set up a rig for him. First drop and he had a nice ling onboard
. Then it was time to try for cod or pollock on the feathers. Unfortunately the mackerel were so thick that this was impossible. No complaining though as were very glad to see them So we headed inshore to try for a bass. We got loads of pollock. Then Rea showed us how it was done by pulling in a nice bass
. Overall a great few hours.
After all of this fishing I am going to need a holiday
.
