North Wicklow, 12-11-11

#1 Post by eyesreilly »

People:me, Mitch,met Zoltan and Stephen8wood

Duration:7pm-11-45pm

Tide:low ,,but rising slowly

Weather:lovely evening, calm

Bait:frozen crab , lug and squid

Rigs:2 hook flappers and pulley rig at distance

Results:whiting, coalies, pollock, pouting, shore rockling




Report:Just lost the report there so this one is the shorter version. Nice evening to be out ,also nice to meet Stephen and Zoltan and another lad whose name I didnt get. Last few sessions I had were solo efforts ,,,,,,makes a nice difference at night when theres a few lads about,not that i'm afraid of rats or anything :oops: . Couple of nice fish taken by Mitch and Zoltan, decent coalie by Mitch and Zoltan had a lovely pollock in close which hammered the bait. I had some nice shore rockling and a decent pouting, plenty of whiting about and also plenty of weed with large boulders attached, but manageable ( I only lost 2 rigs this week :oops: ). A bit of wind might have made a difference but it was a decent enough night on the East Coast. Well my peaceful fishing is over now with Fishface back from his tour of Afghanistan/East Pakistan (on my recommendation :wink: ) but I suppose all good things come to an end :cry:

8) nice result and pics lads, like the colour variations on the rocklings!
Dave during typing your report it might help pressing Ctrl+A (select all) and Ctrl+C (copy) a few times when you progress with typing. Prevents you from loosing everything you have just typed in case the browser window crashes. Simply hit Ctrl+V (paste) when you are in the textbox again and everything will be there.

nice pics dave :) . you'll have to try a bit harder to get rid of fishface :lol: :lol: :lol:
as for your report being lost, i've gotten into the habit over the years of highlighting the txt in the box when i've finished writing the report with the left click button on the mouse then hit the right button and click copy. that way if you get prompted to sign back in when you got to add pics you just sign back in and right click paste in the report txt box and your report appears again :P :P :P . it can be bloody frustrating when you've sat down and wrote a good report only to lose it :(
