When: 26/05/2021
Where: North Dublin Cliff
Who: Myself
Duration: 22:00-01:00
High Water: 00:11
Equipment: 13ft bass rod and 15ft surf rod both on pulley rigs.
My Bait: Peeler Crab
Conditions: Super Blood Moon.
Result: A strap conger eel
I was actually at my usual spot tonight but I decided to leave for a different mark after an hour as there was almost no surf, went to a cliff nearby, was fishing peeler baits close in and managed a strap conger eel so got another point for the species hunt!

I’ve found the fishing very poor this week around local marks, speaking to a few different lads and they were the same, apart from picking up the odd bass, nobody seemed to be catching much. Glad to see you caught a few
