Kilmore quay April 1st

#1 Post by dac69696969 »

People:Myself, Mickm and 4 others

Duration:9.30am-3.30pm

Tide:

Weather:overcast,mild with a light n/e

Bait:mac,sandeel and dead rag :roll:

Rigs:allsorts

Results:Pollock(many), coley(4),codling(20-30),pouting(1),poor cod(1),ling(1),dab(1),doggy(1),cuckoo wrasse(1)


Report: a few of us headed out of kilmore today with Dick Hayes on board enterprise. No macs to be found but there was a whale spotted a few times about 2 mile from shore! Everyone had plenty of fish in the first half of the day with it slowing down in the afternoon. I got most of my fish gilling but it has to be said that the biggest number of fish seemed to be caught by some of the lads jigging unbaited multicoloured feathers(cod/pollock/coley). A very enjoyable day out resulting in a nice bit of fresh cod for the dinner. I couldn't recommend the skipper highly enough to anybody who is thinking about giving kilmore a go
Best cod-5.5-6lb
Best pollock - 6.5lb

the way things look at the moment there might be a bit of a roll on it on tuesday after mondays south to westerlies, if it were me i would be thinking more about wednesday :wink:
give one of the charter skippers a ring on monday and ask for there advice, normally they dont mind giving out safety advice to anglers :wink:

Found this site very good for all around weather / wave, if you cant find the area you want just pick a mark either side and you will know what to expect when you get there,

i use a couple of different sites as well just to be sure,
