Nice one Rab :D

Hard to believe the coincidence but I was actually going through my saved messages and noticed a couple from yourself re Antrim Coast and was just wondering if you were still fishing this part of the world....lo and behold :shock:

5th Cuckoo on the antrim coast dont think it is down to luck. You must be putting in the hours.

Got to add a ray to my species list soon. Just something about the way they look and swim that facinates me.
