report-
i headed down today hopeing for a normal millisle lagoon flattie session with 10-15 flatties or so on the float, managed plenty of flatties in the first hour with nothing else, until a shoal of very small mullet moved in, managed one, i then got my smallest ever pollack and another 3 followed i then spotted a silver eel in close, so i dangled my bait in very close for a few seconds when it took, got it in, another species down!
this was followed by more mini flatties a couple of sand gobbies and i finished with a shanny.

Well done Dan.

Another species chalked off the old list

yea it was another fantastic session, for once in the past month the fishing is on my side again.

Well done Dan, 35 fish in 4-5 hrs, great result ,,and the weather was like the porridge in Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, not too hot or not too cold . Youre well on target for your species.

cheers eyesreilly, fishing this week has been great.

I AM A VERY HAPPY MAN

fish tight to the bottom, pollack keep close in, with the odd coalie, different spots around millisle are best to be fished with different baits and rigs.

good stuff Dan,say its good craic with the flatties on the float must give it a go soon.

yea can be good, the ones i got were just minnows, but plenty of them.

I fished down here also and caught not a thing. Must get a run down sometime soon and give a go with the float!

top tip is to fish at dead depth, if you have coarse gear, it works just as well as sea gear.
