Report:Headed to portrush for my first trip of the year, was told i was mental by the wife but of course i knew better..... . had to drive through snow and sleet to get there and was greeted by snow and sleet when i arrived. . met the lads and then set up the gear, lasted about 20 mins before i moved down below the harbour wall for shelter. fishing was slow but managed a codling and whitting double followed by being frozen then a pouting and coalie, all fish were on the small side of big but was just happy to be out . a phone call from the wife telling me that there was wine in fridge and a curry on the way i decided to head for home and thaw out .not sure what the lads finnished up with but can at least report that blanks were avoided all round

no picture's as my fingers were to cold the find the wee buttons...

At least a blank was saved so never a bad trip... ... bet that wine n curry was even nicer than usual

the fishing might not have been great, but at least we all beat the blank

fair play for braving it minty thats the life with the curry waiting for ya

well done on braving the elements guys. Minty i have to totaly agree with you, a nice bottle and a curry- i hope you didnt want it that much you broke the speed limit.... .

fair play to ya's for going out.. always good to beat the blank hehe
