local beach, galway, 23rd march

#1 Post by corbyeire »

just myself

didnt even know the tides, arrived down just as it began to turn - using re,re,refrozen lug and mackeral

got one 36cm after about an hour of the drop at 20:30

thought this is good stayed on for another 3 hours expecting more

think i need to go and catch a dogfish or ray now

the flatty bashing while entertaining is getting a bit stale now - talk of the sea trout being about not happening for me

maybe try the lure for bass with these fine evenings

That mark is proving a decent flounder venue, great to have somewhere so close :D Hopefully the next few weeks will bring a bit more variety to the fishing!
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!

id like to think so - only saw a coalie and rockling there for the first time a few weeks ago but it is so shallow i just cant see much more!
