Results:Ballen Wrasse,Corkwing wrasse, Tompot blenney, Pollock, and 1 tiny coalie



Report:Last minute session as weather cleared up went down to the tackle shop for the seccond time today and got some rag.Got fish from the start, mostly small but i nice pollock about 3\4 of a pound and a nice ballen wrasse over a pound id say that gave a great scrap on the ultra light gear i was using.Started loosing rigs in the rocks and switched to a freelined rag on a size 6 hook but could only manage tiny pollock and i tiny coalie but great craic all the same.Sorry no pics as Tony wasnt with me and my camera on my phone is crap.

Fair play to ya for getting out even if you had a good camera u wouldn't be able to use it

Dont mind him sod , was down there again yesterday meself and the sport is great on light gear, plenty of small fish with the chance of a few decent ones, saw another double of tub gurnards taken also. Great seeing all the action unfold under you as the pollock chase the small fry. I saw one chase them, then break away and take my rag, then head into the weed. Also saw a wrasse bullying the pollock away from my bait , then saw the way they approach and take the bait without being hooked, theyre no eejits and the smaller the hooks the better . You probably caught one of these
