Middle Rock Malahide 10.07.2020

#1 Post by Gonzo »

When: 10/07/2020
Where: Middle Rock Malahide
Duration: 00:00-02:00
High Water: 03:17
Equipment: 11ft Daiwa bass rod with Shimano 4000 Reel
Bait/Rig: Ragworm tipped with Squid on 2 hook paternoster 1/0 hooks with beads/attractors.
Conditions: Calm and clear.
Result: My PB smooth-hound

Went to try the swim platform at High Rock but someone already got there before me so I decided to give middle rock a go, it's a nice flat rock closer to Malahide. First cast and 5 minutes in I get a huge bite, fish was fighting so hard I thought it was snagged, eventually got it in landing my PB smooth-hound, must of been about 3-4lbs at least. Quick picture and she went back. Fished the next 2 hours with no bites :lol:
