Has anyone fished around St Johns Point recently? I'm heading this weekend and I'm dying to get a cuckoo wrasse! I've seen ling down there too so wouldn't mind teasing one of those out from the shore! :D :D :D Was down diving there a few weeks back and seen plenty of rods about but they were mostly adorned lovingly with teams of six coulourful feathers. :roll:
Hopefully I'll have a sore arm and a few new species by the sunday!

If you look straight across the water , you will see me fishing the virgin waters!!

Haven't fished St. Johns in a while. I have seen quite a few cuckoo caught from a boat about 50ft out from St. Johns. Watched a man pull in wrasse all day from the shore, all ballen.

Fished St.John's last weekend had a crackin day catchin pollack and wrasse all to the left of the lighthouse, Lug was my most productive bait of the day with size 1 mustad neon hooks using a 2 hook rig and about a 120g weight with strong currents bouncing my bait about the bottom which gave me more bites and fish.
