Good fishing. Great to hear of sea-trout in the Dodder. Can't be too many capital cities with sea-trout running through them!

one a pound and a quarter, some tell tale signs of being a stockie,
the rest were 6-9" or so and in great nick, untroubled as they were
released in the same spot that i continued to catch, gold head nymphs,
olives and greys worked well! got them in Rory's, Temple Bar.
