Courtown, Wexford 6th-8th july

People:me... me...Teacher.. me...

Duration:started fishin in the mornings from 11am till about 5pm except thursday when i met up with Teacher when i fished till 5pm them
started again by 7:30pm to 12:30am

Tide:neap tide..... the strange thing is i'm used to tides being counted in meters and not centimeters, the difference between high and low was about 10cm, rediculous i know...
Weather:kept clear with light showers the odd day

Bait: sandeel mackerel and squid

Rigs: running ledgers...

Results:

thursday:morning i caught a joey mackerel while spinning from the harbour wall... which i used for bait and started to catch dab and whiting...
when i used all that up i got some very questionable sandeel 3" long, from a particular shop.. then used them and caught more whiting and a tub gurnard..

went fishing with Teacher later that evening plugging for some bass at various marks, unfortunatly it wasnt to be so after the sun dropped we fished the bottom for what ever we could catch, caught two doggies and lost two fish to weeds.. neither of us blanked anyway..

friday: fished the beach in the morning and caught more dab and whiting, whent to the harbour wall and fished a few hours there, more dab and whiting and another tub gurnard (nice fish)( went for a walk down to the wall later that night and saw a couple of lads catch a smoothhound about 8lbs)


saturday: fished the harbour wall, more whiting and dabs (getting to think that's all there is there..


Report: total catch.. 25 dab, 19 whiting, 2 tub gurnards, 2 dogfish and a mackerel...
