Right Boys,

Back down to earth after Kerry next Wednesday 10th October on Kilcoole.

Long Range Weather F/Cast looks settled and High Tide (Neap) is 8:30pm. It's also the peak time of the year so here's hoping someone gets a run.

10 Rod hours last night with Mark & Wexford Dave. Poor conditions, south easterly wind put a big sea on.

More conducive to cod & bass than Tope. The hunt continues!

Last night conditions were beautiful, shooting stars, a lighting storm far out to sea, (bit cold) but just right and the fish weren't playing ball :(
