Narrow it down to the 18th, 19th, 25th or 26th. All weekend dates.

Venues for consideration:

Cushendun.
:D Plenty of Room - Nice Beach - A Few Fish
:cry: Take half a beach home with ya.

Waterfoot
:D Accessable Venue, Roomy, Congers for Ronald, Fish out of the Cars.
:cry: Very Popular venue, possibly get up and find it filled.

Donaghadee
:D Can be good,
:cry: Not enough room though.

Portaferry
:D More Congers for Ronald with Coalies, Codling, Doggies etc for the rest of us.
:cry: Can be patchy, not exceeding roomy for more than 4 Anglers.

Ballycastle Beach (Not the Pan Rocks)
:D Roomy, and a good variety of Fish.
:cry: Freak waves apparantly.

Limerick Point
:D Sounds good
:cry: Not sure of Venue Size.

Ballintoy
:D Big Coalies, and Codling.
:cry: Big Scary Waves and the Neccessity of tying things down.

Any other Suggestions to take into account?

Oh and lads, just an idea, But what if we Pool the bait? If we all get a couple of Packs of a certain bait, then leave a few chopping boards in the middle for use?

Hey,you've certainly covered all the options with those venues K2.

#10 Post by **shockleader50** » Sun Feb 06, 2005 10:42 pm

Good idea on the bait idea mate.As long as we can decide on who's bringing what.No good everyone turning up with the same stuff.There's only so much you can do with 20 boxes of squid. :lol:

pookie · #12 Post by **pookie** » Sun Feb 06, 2005 10:50 pm

What is the sea bed like have you fished it is it tackle grave yard. also what sort of fish

#17 Post by **Drew** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 6:30 pm

Its a Dangerous oul Rocky outcrop, I'd leave it til ya've been fishing for a while. But If you wanna know about it, ask Ronald.

pookie · #18 Post by **pookie** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 7:12 pm

leaving it suits me....lol i wait a bit. just trying to find out about the spots you suggested. you never said what one you want to fish for next meet. well mate whats your choice

#19 Post by **Drew** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 7:58 pm

Well, in my first post I suggested Cushendun again, Due to space, lack of Snags, availability of Fish etc etc...

But its up to those who are running the transport.

pookie · #20 Post by **pookie** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 8:29 pm
