went down around half 2, the session started slow until darkness rolled in as soon as it got dark i got a small codling at 14cm, this was followed by a pollack of 18 which was then followed by a 22cm coalie, this was followed by a few more pollack and this was then followede by the sandsmelt (60th Irish species for 2009), for the rest of the session i was just getting pollack and i ended on a small pouting. All in all a good session.

photos of a few of them would be nice

I'm not sure that the secret of Dan's success is necessarily the venue. I think its probably down to the fact that he puts in more hours fishing than anyone else on the Forum or elsewhere!

Fair play to him.

to be honest i wouldnt say he puts more hours than most ! but if he did (and im not being smart when i say this ) but i wouldnt want to spend all those hours on the same venue catching and counting a yearly tally of 10,000 pin whiting !

imagine taking pictures of 10000 whiting it would do your head in trying to ID them

Na you just spend your time on piers blanking on congers

that may be true mr. hoff but that one time it works out none of the previous blanks matter ! and chances are my one fish will be heavier than the whole of dans yearly whiting catch !
