the gannons 30-8-10

#1 Post by roger de dodger »

People:me

Duration:8 pm till 10.30pm

Tide:low at 10

Weather:none

Bait:rag and crab

Rigs:3 hook flap and 3 hook cliped down

Results:16 dogfish and 5 codling




Report:needed a fix but with the tides assways i headed to the gannons as its easy to fish at low water off the sand ,and it can throw up a few fish ,as i was setting up a sea trout was hopping out and winking at me every minute or so :lol: as soon as my bait hit the water he hit the road :wink: i think he was watching me :shock:was steady fishing with fish at all distances doggies galore and a few codling thrown in for good measure ,no weed really till i cast out more than 80 yards and then it wasnt bad by greystones standard 8)packed up a tad early as there are only so many dogs a man can haul in before he needs a cup of char and a few dunkers :roll:
few pics to keep eyes happy :wink:

Wow, Havnt seen a Cod that colour in years. We used to call them weed Cod for obvious reasons. :-)
Used to catch them in good numbers from a boat off Killoughter when I was a teenager.
