Skerries & Loughshinny Eging
Tried Skerries last night again for squid but all of the lights on the harbour were off strangely enough, I tried for about an hour and all I got was a brand new set of feathers with a 3oz lead that someone must have cracked off during the day
After that I went to Loughshinny to see what the light situation was like and it was actually pretty good, the water has way more light on it here than Skerries ever has but what I didn't see in Skerries was that the water was murky brown so probably a bad night for it! I'm going to try Loughshinny again maybe on the next full moon, hopefully the water will be more clear then!

The razor boats seem to be fishing between balbriggan and skerries close in the last week or two doesn’t help the water clarity,when the weather was better the water was clear enough for mackerel but not the squid

Re: Skerries & Loughshinny Eging
Well I really hope I find some success this year, would love to have a nice stock of self caught squid to go with all the lug I'm going to pump and salt with the new bait pump I just boughteoghanb wrote:The razor boats seem to be fishing between balbriggan and skerries close in the last week or two doesn’t help the water clarity,when the weather was better the water was clear enough for mackerel but not the squid

I think if you dial it in it can be much quicker and easier!kenf41 wrote:Ive a bait pump.
