i do see an odd anaemic looking one now and again, but what i noticed in a few that were eaten over the last two weeks is they were full to the gills with oil, just oozing out of them :wink:

i was out fishing on a boat yesterday, we were targeting mr mackeral in the south west region of kerry, as there were reports of mackeral caught in the general area a week or two previously and so off we went in hope, happy days as we had a30 or so mackeral on feathers, i wonder if this is the latest in the year they have been caught, can anybody assist?

I believe they were being caught in dunmore east up until late december last year. Well done on getting a few.
