Fished Killiney yesterday, run up to high water very little weed from high water onward loads of weed close to shore making the retrive bloody hard, also keeping the lines seriously tight and tripod high to keep the lines clear of the onshore weed, the weed itself was a mixture of broken kelp, mermaids hair, and sea grass, which once on the line would pull the weight lose and there was a real danger of losing tackle with the weight of the line, and only got one mack on a single clip down rig casted at distance baited with.......LUG
(i've caught macks on mack, and rag but never on lug before!!) wouldnt really mind it so much but had the short rod out with feathers looking for them on that!!
There was that much weed around i was hopin a few "lads" would come down and smoke it away !!
Sparky+1 and myself had a tough time through it!
