Great report Art. Went out last night to Killiney. Conditions were perfect..... but nobody told the bass!!! It can be very hard work to get a good bass around Dublin.

Guess I will have to go to Ardmore again this weekend. It is killing me being stuck in the office, looking out the window and feeling that I should be fishing.

By the way the popper Denis was using is a Skitter Pop, I think.

Tight lines and leave a few for me.

Drool............. :shock:

When the good Lord takes me one day, if im not standing in a place like that I'll have harsh words with him...! :-)

Unless of course its the playboy mansion and then I might let him away with it.

Savage fishing as ever C.

One day i'll make my way down there and we'll give em some hell.
