Red Bay County Antrim 18/6/09

Postby Der Baron » Mon Apr 05, 2010 8:14 pm

Species: Bull Huss

Specimen Weight: 20lb 3oz

Irish record: 23lb (I think)

Location: Red Bay, County Antrim

Bait: Whole Mackeral

Rigs: Flowing trace

Report: I caught 3 that day, all specimens, the other 2 were over 16lbs, this was the biggest, sorry I'm late posting it, but I just got my certificate from Dublin last month. All of these were caught within 400yds of the shore. Anyway just wanted to share the pic of a fantastic fish.
