Not very good, 1st night fished at the wee house of malin, didnt realise how rough the ground was, first 3 casts got snagged so i packed up , with the missis and the daughter taking the piss, as i was all prepared and was expecting so much.
Next session was culdaff beach, fished it to the right off the car park, when i should have fished to the left, only had squid and sandeel as bait, blanked again, with the whole family taking the piss when i got back to the house :( next session was the pier at night, slung out mackeral feathers, hooked into some mackeral and small pollack, but as i was lifting them out off the water from the pier wall they would shake themselves off.
just wasnt my day.
Enjoyed it though hope i have better look next year :lol: :lol:
