Report:
On the way back from working in Waterford decided to break the drive to dublin by hitting courtown beach. Set up a light spinning rod with lugs and a 15g weight. After 20 minutes in the sunshine I moved into the shadows of the cliffs and immediately got a rattling bite. 10 minutes later I landed a small smoothhound pup. I got a few more bites and then headed home.
First smoothhound and plenty of action for a little over an hours fishing.

Nice one.... Always nice to get any fish on the lighter rods if possible.
