3 Specimens in 4 casts

#1 Post by mickeyfish »

People:myself and Fisherman59

Duration: 4 hours

Tide: rising

Weather:Irish

Bait: Crab and Lug

Rigs: pulley rigs

Results:3 Specimen Hounds, 8.1lbs, 7.9lbs & 6.8lbs, as well as a few smaller hounds and Bass




Report: Both myself and fisherman59 went out for a few fish, and a bit of a lesson on catching hounds for me. In his first 4 casts he had 4 hounds, a pup and 3 specimens and all i could manage was a tub gurnard

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. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Somebody is going to get mileage out of this one. :twisted: :twisted:

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 ..
