fished ballinoulart a rising tide from 1 pm til 8pm , no hounds, a few flounders was all to show, lots of weed there tho, would have liked to fish it at dark but the 2 lads wanted a guinness session( sighs )

Any hounds showing up on the east coast yet lads ?

had a pup on ennereilly last sat night. theres some biggies been caught in wexford see the report section.

Anyone looking for a few crab for the weekend gis a shout...

Sound advice thanks roger, I will be targeting them this year.

Great year for hounds so far. Haven't blanked a hound hunt yet but still can't break the 4 - 5 pund mark. I would kill to find out where that 15pounder was caught

Rodgers tips are spot on. When it comes to hounds for me, big big baits is my number one rule

Can anyone suggest a spot on the other side of the border or just over it. Please. I would love to experiance the fight of one. Pm if you don't want to post.

not too bad for the smoothies so far and plenty about biggest so far 7.1lb hoping for a double this year

If the crabs are on the Feed hard stripping your baits have rigs set up with Prime Bait, (Crab, etc.) keep refreshing and pitching baits out, and when the crabs suddenly die off the feed, send out the prime baits (better crab baits)

Had two young smooth hounds last saturday night 1ft and 1and a half ft long nice fish to catch no matter the size.

Great tips, thanks everyone

Had 4 this saturday hounds among a few other species, on low tide. 3 over 3ft long well happy

Nice 1 thanks

Had nearly 6 smoothies among other species on low tide,4 around 3 to 3 and a half foot mark ,1at 4 ft and one which broke off in the breakers had to be over 6ft easy(would have been my PB for hounds),i even got my waders full of water as i ran into the water to try grab it was well gutted it took the lead along with the hook and after my soaking i even tied two grip leads together to make grappling hooks to see if i could snag the line and lead he had attached to thinking he might be a little tired after battle(in my dreams) and still near by mad i know but adrenaline was pumping on seeing such a big one and i wanted it big time.

thanks for the tips roger
