Ards Mullet back

#1 Post by Fentster »

I was thinking that the 20 ton Mullet cull (murder :cry: ) in the Isle of Man a couple of months ago would've wiped out the Strangford stocks this year however to my delight they have returned to Ards this morning, in pretty good numbers too by the look of it :D
Most looked about 1-1 1/2lbs but saw a few around the 3lb mark.
Looking forward to landing my first one this year :lol: :lol:

Thats great news.

I saw some an Kinnegar about a month ago but none since.

I'm going to be working in the Harbour Estate for the next few months so I'll keep an eye out for them.
