They should definitely be fairly plentyful by then - at least I hope so :roll: :roll:



I hope so Frank. :D Although it's only been a couple of months since I last caught one, it's felt like years! :lol:

I haven't seen or heard of too many people having cod sessions that good this year. I think i'll move to east cork for next years season. Lots of very nice fish there. Well done. You'll have to invest in a new freezer if that kind of fishing keeps up. :D

Thanks pat, but is was only 43 cod.
Even one bass at the moment would be very welcome :roll: :roll:

I wasn't expecting a session like that on Sunday - I thought I had a chance of a few since it has fished so well over a couple of hours the previous evening but I have never had a session anywhere near as good as that :shock: :shock: :shock:
If you are living in Cork City you are not that far from Youghal :wink:

My left arm was still aching two days later - I am not used to hauling in so many fish.

It's still a bit early - and if rockling are about its a sure sign that the bass are not there.

Thanks Dave, Youghal is fishing very well at the moment, but who knows if the cod will be there next year. Last winter they were extremely rare, I only caught two 30 cm codling, but this year they are like mackerel. Whereas whiting were very plentyful last winter but are very scarce this year.
