it was great to meet yourself and mick for the first time and dan again even if he was boasting a bit :roll: :roll: :lol: I enjoyed the session and the craic

I was surprised to see the thornies so early in the year and a 6lb thornie was a perfect start to the year
looking forward to the next session and thanks for all the advice

Well done everyone, that's great fishing and results for this time of year 8) Nice thornies. I never got one last year despite a couple of trips out trying, I intend or hope to put that right this year, Galway certainly seems to be the place to go for them if the reports are anything to go by. You's have got the year off to a great start! Good report and pictures.
