Connemara Mark

#1 Post by Flic »

People:Me, John, and Anna

Duration:17:00-20:30

Tide:Low to near high

Weather:windy

Bait:mac

Rigs:2 hook rig

Results: x2 conger x1 mac, x1 pollock and something else




Report:Decided to try a new mark with a friend and my hopes were low as it was very shallow water. But once the tide started coming in it got a little deeper.

First cast and 5 mins later I pulled in a Conger

Second cast and i was in again after 10 mins, but lost it :(

An hour later and John had a bite and reeled in a smaller conger. John also caught something that i have no idea what it is so any help would be nice

In the end, me with a Conger, John with a Conger, mac and the thing above, and Anna with a small Pollock.

All caught and released, and best of all, it was a nice day spent with friends.
