Gurteen August 11 2pm-7pm (Shore MA) sponsor Henrys Tackle

Well done on the fishing but could pose the same problem for the S.A.I. comp next weekend.

will see what way the weather is on the day in the area.. then decide from there

Should we have a plan "B" ready so rather than going to a new venue with the wrong baits. Baits are not a problem with me but other anglers may not have time at short notice

Will one of the mods move this into the sai gurteen section.

Report:
the club outing was meant to be held at Gurteen, but on arrival to the road that leads down to Gurteen it was obvious that (a)the carpark was full, and (b) the beach was packed.. the cars were literally parked all the way up to the main road with little space to pass and no space to park.. so after a quick decision we decided that it would be pointless to attempt the treck down to the beach, so back in the cars and off to little killary..

as for plan B.. (a) dogs bay and (b) off the rocks around from dogs bay..

baits and species are much the same as gurteen

Don't mention dogs went to Bantry, West Cork, with Philip and William Rice (wrice) on Sunday we caught a skip full of them.

meant to add attachment....


A: Gurteen (marked where all comps are held on the beach)
B: Dogs bay
C: Rock mark (comps have been held here, but i've never fished it)

Steve what does dogs bay fish like?

Steve what does dogs bay fish like?

ray dogs and flats.. but not in great numbers like gurteen can be..
its pretty much the same.. can fish either good or bad.. have heard the rocks fish good most of the time, but as mentioned i have never fished them..
looking at the weather forecast for the coming week

its hard to say what way its going to go at the moment :?

Hopefully it'll be raining! Id say we might get away with it anyway. It was the sunday of race week yesterday .

Just wondering about accomodation lads, is there a general consensous where we're hitting or a free for all, Galway City Presumably :D

it seems that Galway city is the place, petekd will be the tour guide :shock: :lol:

finding accom might be hard.. most hotels might be booked out, plenty of b&b's around salthill
