sheeps head peninsula

#1 Post by lumpy »

as i had the day off work today and the weather was so bad that even in my own insanity i wouldnt go fish in it i decided to take a spin around the above mentioned peninsula. found about 15 marks that i intend on fishing this year, mainly rough ground marks which i would hope would hold good huss and conger and the odd gravel/clean ground which i'm hoping will hold ray (might be a long shot tho)

just wondering have many people fished it, if so how have their catches been, i.e species etc.

cheers, regards neil

Hi Lumpy,

I am heading down this way early April and would be interested to hear of any ray and huss marks too.

Web info seems fairly scarce and out of date on it.
