Killoughter 22/03/2014
People:Myself, Skelly and James
Duration:6pm -10pm
Tide:2 hours of the drop and 2 hours up
Weather:Breezy but dry
Bait:Frozen crab, Mak, Ragworm
Rigs:Pullies and flappers
Results: DOGFEST
Report: it's been a while since we last fished this mark, but we thought we might root out a few small codling and maybe a nice whiting or 2.
From the first cast it was Dogfish and that's how the session continued with singles and doubles coming in; nigh on every cast.
Skell had a few whiting (biggest 29cm) along with a with good haul of Dogs, myself and James eased off on the fishing once our Dogfish tally hit double figures. As the night grew colder Skelly called time up (I'd say his arms were heavy by that time with around 20 fish or so to his credit) and we headed for home.
Blustery auld night but enjoyable all the same.

Same happened to me three weeks ago. Double's and triples, no sooner had I cast out and it was hit. Even moved a few times with the same result. Ravenous sea monsters.

Re: Killoughter 22/03/2014



at least they put a bend in the rod which is more than can be said for the 6 inch coalies and whiting we usually get plagued with
