Low water was at 10:30
Conditions were picture postcard stuff.
Arrived at Ferry Point about 09:20 and set up the rod stand to book my spot before anyone else arrived. As there was a bit of the dropping sill there I would normally have fished the left hand corner. But this spot was taken by 2 other anglers from Dublin. By the time I was ready to cast out 3 more anglers arrived. The first ¾ of an hour was slow and only one cod to show. So it was time to move. The lads to my left were old fishing buddies and didn’t mind me casting out over their heads and let the tide take the trace past them.
The next 7 cast all at distance produced 7 cod in about 40 minutes of madness. The only break I took was to take off the hoodie and the few pics. The two mates and the two lads further to the left were catching nothing. Distance and knowing the right spot to put the bait, been the difference between us.
As the tide started to push I made acquaintances with the 2 dubs if only to flake baits out over their heads and let the tide take back to where I was fishing from. This produced a 2 more cod to size (minimum size30cm) that gave me 10 cod the size ranging from 34cm to 40cm. 
some of the cod most around the 37/38cm size
With a 3.9mt tide it was time to move on. Headed to spot number 2 where I had another 7 cod of better quality. Also had a 29cm flounder and a 45 cm bass both put back. By 15:00 I had enough of it and headed back for the weigh-in. Well anybody getting more than 17 cod deserved to beat me. Back at the bar with 50 minutes to spare I opened the flask an enjoyed a nice few cups of homemade soup and buttered rolls
