Well done Alan and Mike, a fantastic result with the ray for this time of year. Alan, I have to confess that I kinda didn't beleive you when you told me that you can catch ray all year around down there, I beleive you now (sure what do I know ) I'm glad you finally got to use your new rod, about time too, you've had it long enough! Thought it would be well broken in by now. Shame about the trip to Cork, but I deffo think you's were wise not to go with the weather the way it is, I don't know what it's like down your way at the minute but up here in the North we are totally covered with snow, not great fishing weather, really freezing and hard to get about.
It's good to see you reporting again, as always a great read and good pics.
