Shannon estuary, Limerick, 11-6-11

#1 Post by Sweetwrasse »

People:Myself

Duration:8pm-10.30pm

Tide:LW at 9pm

Weather:Calm

Bait:Squid and mackeral wraps

Rigs:2/0 pulleys

Results:1 doggie




Report:
Was down in Limerick for the weekend so couldn't pass up the opportunity to try for a ray. Time was tight but managed a few hours on Saturday night. Beautiful calm evening and hopes were high. Just after low water had a decent slow pull, lifted into it but sadly no ray on the end :( Should ray bites be alowed to develop or should you lift in straight away? I left this one for about a minute after the first pull. Fishing was slow but a sympathetic doggie showed up to beat the blank about 10pm :wink: Ah well no ray this time so the hunt continues :roll: Many thaks to the Austrian and Donagh for information on the mark.
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!
