Benone? It would be with some reluctance if i'd journey up their to catch flounders Pookie. St. John's is a cracking venue, any number of species. Donegal Town or Killybegs would be good base for accomodation and few pints afterwards.

I have no problem with driving long distance. Just think that there would be more crack if we were all on a beach somewhere.

Hope to make it just to meet a few people,
Depends on dates though.
I think the trouble is that this post is not looked at every night, for example I have not opened this for a couple of weeks, maybe it needs to be highlighted again.

I think SAI club were talking of having a comp up north ,why not tie in with that and hammer the match men :lol: at least then the boys south of the border might have a chance with some decent anglers :wink:
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.

I'd be up for it. Benone strand in october? Should be plenty of flats around and maybe a bass or two. The craic in Portstewart should be good too!

The first leg could be on the beach and the 2nd leg could be in Kelly's niteclub :lol: I'd say us southern lads would win both legs :P
