Being sent back up to Donegal in the next few days so going to have to say goodbye to beautiful Clonakilty and Cork. Had a great six months down here and I have to say a big thanks to Petekd for all his help(mixed with a fair amount of slagging :evil: !) with marks/bait...it was very generous of you and much appreciated and you'll always be welcome any time your up my way. To Lumpy for his generosity with the bass marks, top man :wink: , and also to Donal Domeny, Boogaloo & Marty for all their friendly advice & help. And finally to those Cork bass, i'm going miss you terribly :cry: :cry: :cry:

Bradan, Clarke's it is 8) ! Danny we'll have to meet u at some stage :lol:
Have to say that bass stocks in Cork seemed very healthy, at times we were seeing shoals of small fish which can only be good for the future.

Back to coalie bashing for you then pete :lol: it's a good job davy and i got down there before you moved .
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

All the best buddy, twas a pleasure. In spite of recent remarks and dodgy pics appearing in the press.... :lol:

Had a barrel of laughs this past few months with trips to Cork, Wexford and Galway accompanied with copious amounts of traditional slagging. Enjoyed it all the way mate although I'm glad the coalie bashing stopped when it did.

Good to get to know you and I begrudgingly admit I learned a thing or two over the past while. Catch you up in Donegal if we dont get a session in this weekend.

All the best Baldy.....I'll have to target someone else in the old head to head competition battles... *Cough 3:1 3:1 3:1.......cough*

Things I wont miss however....

-Constant "FAT" jibes

-Your farting problem in particular on long journeys to/from marks

-Prior to every comp enquiring if Ill dig your bait....

-Dodgy pics in this months Irish Angler

-Your inept driving (you know exactly what Im referring to.... :lol: )

-Your inability to deal with hangovers.....lots of moaning and groaning and "I feel sicks...."

-You eating all my pies before proceeding to hurl yet more fat abuse(fatuse???)

-You offering ridiculously low sums of money for some of my gear.....


Thats enough for now..... You can give them hell in DL now we've taught you how to fish.....Take care mate.
Fluff chucking is the new black..... Rampant Wreckfish is a fly angler in denial :D
