Plaice??

Anyone getting any plaice yet this year? I know its still a bit on the early side, but thinking of trying for one.

hi seaniebo....we are startin to get plaice up and down the antrim coast with one or two good one's throwin in for good measures so u shold be gettin them down ur way too

Caught them in the Swilly from the shore in March last year.

I had a 35cm Plaice at Glenarm on Saturday, the brother had one at Red Bay last week.

Thanks for the replies lads. Just wondering if they appear a little earlier up in the north? Il give it a try next time theres a settled spell. Thanks again.

Hi lads,
what bait and rigs are ye using?

Thanks,

from most of the best plaice marks on the east antrim coast a clipped down rig with reasonably long snoods, size 2 - 2/0 hooks normally best bait ragworm tipped with squid strip does the trick
distance fishing can help

I got mine on a 2 hook clip down rig with rag worm. It took the top hook which was a 1/0 - swallowed the complete hook, I had to cut the snood to get rid of the fish :? :?
