Re: pier donegal bay
We'll done on the blank, 
your first of the year, at least it's out of the way and at this time of year it may not be the last. Hopefully the colder weather will send the crabs into hiding and the fish can actually find the bait

Re: pier donegal bay
Some whitting going of that pier to at night but very small! Floating beads all the way! When the tide is going there it pulls your gear out with it towards the tope hole!
