When: 06/06/2021
Where: Launching from Rush, Co. Dublin
Who: Myself and Ken.
Duration: 12:00-18:30
Low Water: 16:00
Equipment: 6ft 50lb rod, 5ft 20lb rod, 9ft spinning rod for lures.
Bait/Rig: Peeler Crab & Mackerel
Conditions: flat calm and sunny
My Result: 10 Smooth Hound, 2 Dogfish, 1 Thornback Ray
Kens Result: 8 Smooth Hound, 1 Dogfish, 1 Dab, 1 Thornback Ray
Second boat comp of the season fishing over low tide and it was an absolute cracker! We went straight to a sandy bank to anchor, and we were onto fish almost straight away! We caught a few smooth hounds, dogfish and the two rays here before pulling anchor and heading to some rough ground to drift for pollack/coalies for an hour, after a long drift with nothing happening we motored up to a different sandy bank, baits in the water for maybe 30 minutes before the hounds came on the feed and after that it was just one after the other
We had 3 rods out between the two of us and it was a struggle to keep them all out at the same time, and we had smoothies constantly tangle the lines together 
at one point Ken had a dab on a 3/0 as well I finished up in 6th place and Ken 11th with another great day on the water!
