Went down to the Telegraph Pole in Howth for a few cast's yesterday in the hopes of a pollock or codling, about 10 minutes in I was onto a nice mackerel, another 20 minutes or so after that my rod bent over so much I thought I was snagged, took me a while to get them in but it was 3 of the biggest mackerel I've ever seen! Fished for another little while after that and caught another mackerel before heading off!

Fair play, you're putting in the hours, nice mackerel.
