Report: Arranged with Neil to fish Greystones Harbour for a few hours before he went on one of his many holidays. The report from Roger and company had be chomping at the bit to get out, so I got myself organised from early

. Unfortunately this didn't stop me from forgetting a few items

such as scissors and more importantly rigs

. Arriving at the Harbour I got talking to a father and son who were just leaving,,,,,"Any luck?", says I,,,,,,,,"A nice flounder" , was the reply and the young lad say's "That funny man on the pier has already got one and he's only there a few minutes

". I knew it was going to be one of those night's

I got set up and it wasn't long before I had a double of Rockling

. After having 2 blanks previously I was delighted to be back at the races but there was a lull after that for me

Not so for Neil ,,,,,he had one fish after another and soon had six or seven, among them rockling, whiting and a nice little flounder

. Neil left early, presumably to give me a chance to catch up

, and I moved into his spot. I had a nice pollock ,around 33cms, in close on rag/mack, then another smaller one. A couple more Rockling and a few small whiting was my total for the night,,,,,,not too bad I suppose,,and a lot better than my last few sessions
