Rosslare,Wexford,15-June 2010

#1 Post by jd »

People:Me

Duration: 8pm-9:30 pm

Tide: In at about 9

Weather: Northerly breeze

Bait:Peeler

Rigs: Up and over

Results: 1 starry smoothound


Report: Down in Wexford visiting the folks, I managed to pop out to Rosslare for a while to see if I could pick up a hound. There was quite a chop with waves breaking over the groynes, and quite a bit of weed in the water. After about 3/4's of an hour or so I managed one hound of about 90 cm. A bit tricky getting him in as the rocks were quite slippy and I was on my own. Stayed for a while longer but happy to get my first halfway decent smut of the year.
