I hope you will get smashing week of fishing. We talked with few locals, and they said, July is very good over there but August even better.yngkmd wrote:me and me da have a weeks fishing on beara at the start of july

cheers all for the commentsadrwdarcy wrote:Amazing photos and terrific session.
cheers Danny. All pollacks fought like hell, coz this mark was pretty deep ca 40ft of water. It took me about 10 min to lift this beast from seabed . Like I said, my gear was realy light , but was strong enough for this type rockfishing. I lost just one decent fish, my mistake because I didn't check the knot before cast.Danny M. wrote:Great Pictures, and some great catches too.
Reckon that 6lb Pollock gave a good fight on that gearthx man-I can't wait for my next trip to Beara-It's like an addiction now for mefishy1987 wrote:excellent wrasse beautiful congrats and massive lumps of pollack well done can,t wait to go down to the beara again this summer![]()

It was something about 10 euros for a box. Realy poor quality lures made from hard plastic, some of them have no action at all.
they tasted yumi yumi from instant bbq. they were the main course in our camping menuomercier wrote:Absolutely superb, love those pollocks!
does anyone know how they taste as fish & chips?Stephen8wood wrote:If only I had the chance. Great report as usual.

Great Report and some very good fishing. Nice to see the Wrasse on the SP's as well. I was surprised that they hit big shads. What is the name of this German store
I need to stock up a a few colours for this type of fishing.
