Re: 3 Specimens in 4 casts
That will teach you not to go shore fishing with an old dog now he'll never shut up on how he taught the pup a lesson.
Somebody is going to get mileage out of this one.

Re: 3 Specimens in 4 casts
What an excellent report Mickey well done but it brings back sad and good memories of myself and my father may he R.I.P. We had a boat in Portrush during the good days when plaice and haddock were plenty and if there was a single plaice on " The plaice banks " offshore then my ol mans name was on it - he was lethal and had countless specimen plaice ( among others ) to his name . I could never match him in any way no matter what I tried and as they say " The pup for the footpath the old dog for the hard road " that was me and my father . Of all the specimens he caught he loved his specimen Herring which was a few ounces off the Irish Record . Sadly like my father the plaice and the haddock which were plentifull have long gone. tight lines and thanks again for the lovely report ..
