Mission accomplished Dave, well done mate
Caught and landed using size 4 hooks too, nice going!
I'm really happy for you that you have got to your target number of species as well.

Great to see a raymondo

Nice one on the ray eyes and best of all no gear lost was out recently and will spend the next 3 weeks making up rigs
Well done again on the ray Regards Seamus

Thanks lads,and i know how you feel about the rigs Conger,i'm wearing glasses now at home which help,,,when i remember to put them on

Thats a beauty,persistance certainly pays off my man ,WELL DONE,what kind of rig and baits caught your Ray Eyes( )

well done dave,thats a lovely fish,and on a 4 hook, bet you were sh***ing yourself getting it in!

well done on getting the ray dave,nice size as well,hope that after awhile you will be like me sick of catching them

Thanks lads,3 hook flapper and Superquinns best mack Clownfish .Nearly cr*p*ed myself alright Noel,,,,i dont smoke but i felt like having one afterwards ,thats a bit strange eh? ps,,,,, I'd never get sick of those beauties Gerry

good man dave thats a great tally of fish whos to say you wont get another 2/3 species.

Nice one Dave. Thats a cracker of a fish..

You dirty rotten scum bag! Joking aside well done Dave what a beautie! Jesus on a size 4 and all Your so lucky that there was someone else there to take a pic. That's one for the mantle piece!

Cheers lads, the species hunt is a great man for keeping you interested and a bad session can turn into a good one with a new species, however small Theres no pics of me on the mantle piece,my not so small kids have that room taken over ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,unless my mother has one of me on hers which i doubt

Congrats on reaching 30 species Dave and a nice ray well done

well done i think this species hunt is yours this year

Cheers Ger,do ya think Neil will be pleased for me,,,,i hope he doesnt injure himself falling off his sunbed Thanks Dennis, but i'm not a serious contender ,,,,,,,theres too many young hungry(and most of all skilled!!) guys out there,,,,,,,,,,,its just something to keep me going while im out catching tiddlers

i I put him back and after swimming into the wall a few times he eventually made it back out to sea.

he must have seen how happy you were to see him, that he diden't want to leave you dave hi dave nice one on getting your thornie and hitting the 30 mark on your species list you deserve it mate with the hours you put in a big well done mate, nice one

Thanks Don, you could have knocked me over with a feather last night,,,,the missus was taking all the credit for insisting I go out

Weldone +1 Dave!

Great result on the Raymond! There's lads gonna be pulling their hair out after this news!

Congrats on the Ray and getting your target number in species sweet

Cheers lads, and its only sh$t 99% of the time Andy,,,,,,seriously though i've met great people there who taught me a lot and gave me great advice,,,,,,,,now if only i could remember what it was

Nice one Dave great session & congrats 30 species & Thorhback in one trip

If you get the chance you should try some Ray fishing out the Clifden direction , if ye hit the right spots they can plague you like Whiting

Thanks Dan, but I know im only in the halfpenny place compared to you 67 species You've really taken the wind out of my sails well done

great fishing dave, am delighted for you, if i was on a sunbed i would have fallen off, but have to go to dentist as i have one hell of a toothache, cant eat or drink with it, have it for two days now so have to spend my holiday money with the dentist, hope everyone feels sorry for me

excellent fishing dave we're made up for you getting the ray man. no one deserves it more than you. you certinly put in the hours man and deserve to reap the rewards. now all you need to do is get that conger hope to meet up next thursday man. would be great to get out with you and neil and mick again

but have to go to dentist as i have one hell of a toothache, cant eat or drink with it, have it for two days now so have to spend my holiday money with the dentist, hope everyone feels sorry for me

should have brought the petzl ultra neil one flash of that would have stunned the dentist long enough for you to leg it man

Sorry to hear about the toothache but dont spend my present money on some thing stupid like painkillers , you'll be a long time dead and you'll be wishing then that you could feel that pain

excellent fishing dave we're made up for you getting the ray man. no one deserves it more than you. you certainly put in the hours man and deserve to reap the rewards. now all you need to do is get that conger hope to meet up next thursday man. would be great to get out with you and neil and mick again
