Donegal beaches,, breaking the 40cm mark, nov and early dec

#1 Post by MartinC »

Myself and Sean have been making it a Sunday thing now to get our targets of a 40cm flounder and a donegal bass,, sometimes even squeezing in a morning session,, beaches had been fishing well through the lockdown,, extremely lucky to have so many close to us,, the ever elusive bass has not been captured yet but a 41.5cm flounder I am over the moon with,, some nice turbot showing up and the odd seatrout too,,(all released of course) he even had a double of seatrout which was quite the handful,, great to see them about anyway,,

Some lovely fish there Martin, I haven't been to Donegal since our day out in the boat back in September! But the 18th draws ever closer......I'm actually working on a report to post but it'll look pathetic compared to your results.
