People:me and 2 lads

Duration:20.00 till 23.00

Tide:22.30

Weather:wind and rain

Bait:crab

Rigs:all sorts

Results: around 30 codling betwen 40 and 54 cm

Report:
after the good fishing the last few nights couldnt resist seeing if my luck was still in. 2 of the lads came with me to see if they could shut me up and beat me

they couldnt

from the first cast to the last we were catching good codling with only a few blank casts in betwen for the first time ever we packed up because we were getting tired of catching fish. there was very little weed in the water tonight.

Is anyone on here aware of the dwindling cod stocks recently reported in the Irish sea ?

"Cod stocks in the Irish Sea and the west coast of Scotland have collapsed because of overfishing and politicians’ refusal to fix low enough catch quotas, according to a leading fisheries scientist who advises the European commission on fish quotas.

Dr Paul Connolly’s comments followed the European commission’s decision on Wednesday to recommend for the first time that all fishing cod in the two sea areas is stopped. The commission has previously stopped short of pushing for such draconian measures in such a wide area of sea because of the political difficulty of placing a ban on fishing such a key species."

Why are you killing so many fish ?

What has happened to simply taking what you need ?

Disgrace.

Cod stocks in the west of Scotland and Irish Sea are in trouble but these fish were not caught from the west of Scotland or the Irish sea, by the looks of the heading they were caught in the east Cork area.

well done cracking fishing

It is a fishing site after all so we have to respect peoples posts and comments.
If you plan to have a go at least do it constructively.

(I myself have been guilty of this in the past)

Each to their own. personally I may have kept 1 or 2 but again thats just what I would do.

Nice to see some decent numbers back but maybe give them a break every now and then...?
