afraid not, first the whiskey ran out then the women ran out then the fish ran out :D

years ago there was plenty of LSD's, thornies - theres still a few mullet knocking about and the very odd sea trout that the seals haven't manage to nail.

mussel boats have hammered the lough - not as much as Feckin lugworm left in the lough itself.

afraid not - up until a few years ago there was LSD's and thornies, nowadays theres a few mullet and the odd seatrout that the seals haven't nailed

bottom line - the lough has been hammered by the mussel boats - not as much as a worm left in it - sad really, but our wonderful loughs agency don't seem to give a feck about it. cracking area to spend a summers eveningfishing - just don't expect to catch anything.

first the whiskey ran out,
then the women ran out,
then the fishing ran out :)
