Report:
Arranged to meet up with Al and Jordan for a session, arrived at the mark to see them both fishing, think they were there a few hours before me. After a tricky climb up some rocks ( because i usually bring everything but the kitchen sink ) i got set up beside the lads. Decided to rig up for some conger first to see if i could tempt the one Al lost out of his lair. Not sure exactly what the lads had got before me, few wee conger and some pollack i think. i went staight out on the float with could results of pollack and wrasse . i was pretty happy with the size of the fish but Al told me they were pretty average for this place . Chucked out a 2 hook rig and within 10 mins landed my biggest pollack ever, think it weighed in about 1&1/2lb. ( a fair bit bigger than the fish i get when fishing of the beaches ) . after a few lost rigs it was back to the float, steady numbers of pollack and wrasse including my new p.b . was turning out to be a very good day. Also had a few bumps on the conger gear but no takes. Al and jordan were also getting a decent run on the pollack with at least one the same if not bigger than mine each as well as some good wrasse . packed up before the light dropped, but am already looking forward to the next trip back here .
Sorry the reports a bit late and just hope i included all Al and Jordans catches.......................

nice one minty. the pics turned out well man we had a great day out with plenty of banter jordan ended up with 4 pollack, 3 ballan wrasse and a short spined sea scorpion. i got 7 ballan wrasse, 3 pollack and a wee strap conger. give us a shout when you get back up man and we could give the rock marks over the other side of st johns point a go. killard point might be worth a chuck or some of the ardglass rock marks for a change

Some nice fish there lads, well done.

Well done lads, them rock marks on the north east coast realy seem to be poroducing at the moment.

Nice session lads. Good bag.
