Six mackerel taken (2 fishing) out from Bulloch yesterday evening in about 40 minutes. Saw a few lads catching from the West Pier in D-L as well.
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!

Big numbers of Mackerel off the north Louth coast. Species competition last Sunday and it was near impossible to get through them at every mark

Was out yesterday evening -none to be had inside the harbour and for a while scarce at a few spots outside the harbour

However later on in the session as we drifted a bit more, we hit them in big numbers, by the end they were a nuisance as they hit everything on every drop

Any recent reports from Dun L down to greystones. Still about. Was out a few weeks ago it shocking. :( thinking of going out this weekend and wondering if I should be bringing the freezer stock or is there fresh ones about.

Mate was out last thurs from Dun Laoghaire and got plenty outside the harbour and up in Kilinney Bay but always safer to take a few frozen if you have them.
