I hope these ray were returned? :evil: There are few Ray in Dublin and there are signs of an attempt at a come back. RETURN ALL FISH!

fair play to you. i am not against people taking an odd fish for the table but it's always great to here people putting a few back. sea-angling can be 'doom and gloom' enough. nice one.

Glenaveena is the beach left of Lion's Head. Lion's Head is the large rock which is visable from the Baily Lighthouse when looking towards the Dollymount direction.
