Flounder, dabs, dogs, pup smoothies and pup tope, bass, ray (palm sized) , plaice and a good number of small tub gurnard.

Most of the fish were small i.e. sub 30cms. Longest fish was a tope of around 44cm

Did neither of you read the rules no... - size limits for all species are 20cm.

Yes zone 2 in ballinouart was a stinker with 4 fish winning it, there was a lot of blanks in the zone fishing in close proved fruitless early on with most fish caught at extream distance. i was one of the lucky one's to get a fish a 33 boot lace smoothie. I hope things pick up for the jimmy smith.

Cahore/Old Bawn/Ballinoulart hasn't been fishing well at all in daylight recently. Getting anything there was an achievement!!
