Report:got to the barmouth on castlerock side, set up the roda and within ten minutes, i had a doggy, and very soon after alan had a doggy. nothing much happened after that, except for the spricks. everything was tried and jamie even tried with the fly rod to see if anything would take. plenty of mullet swimming past but we hadnt any mullet gear with us.
also there was a seal or two, and a porpoise (spelling???) and wether this had an effect on the fish, i dont know, but i am sure it didnt help. anyway, we still had a good day out

well done on the LSD but what's a sprick

Only ever fished the barmouth once myself. well done pal

nice one man on getting a few fish. that mark can be a hard one to get a fish from at times. seems like it's either a feast of a famine sort of spot

Well done on getting a few.
