a you dont have to go all the way to the shannon to catch a ray u just have to no were to look and have a nice westerly brees then the ray come in to casting range

unlucky lads on not gettn a ray. But fair play for stickin it out and savin the blanket blank

thanks shane for the pm your a gentleman
the most fish now let me see depends on how you score it some fished two rods some one,and some fished one rod with two lines (only when reeling in mind )tacktics got dirty with poisoned water ,spiked sambo,s full of pepper but got over the top when two lads decided to smoke us off the beach ,some lads would do anything to get a lone of your magic lighter anyway i think i did

here is a picture of our bush food, ray mears would have been proud,mmmmmmm smokey whity

the whiting was tasty mind you

I'm sure the stocks are safe for a while anyway. There was plenty to go around this year

bit of craic mate, the fish was found washed up dead, after we put it back, we didnt kill it for the laugh.

If you Think the whiting was bad should have seen what he did with rogers lighter
