time 3hours before high tide

bait mackeral sandeel and razor fish

result me 1 small pollick 2 five bearded rockling my cousin <BLANK> again

we decided to give glenarm beach a go in front of the police station after setting up it took about 45mins before i got my first bite. It was a small pollick but i was glad it was not a blank. As the night went on slowly i got another good bite about an hour after my first fish it was a five bearded rockling. I was over the moon as i have never caught one before or any rockling. This was shortly followed buy another slightly bigger rockling two p.b.'s in one night not bad. Mean while my cousin who was fishing with the same bait about 20 feet away from me blanked UNLUCKY or what.

guess i must just be a better fisherman lol apart from one trip to ballycastle beach were he stuffed me

At least you didnt black mate 8)
Me and a mate tried that spot on the way home from waterfoot on Monday night, it was very quiet, i got one tiny 5 beardy who i didnt know was even on the hook until i reeled in...we packed up after an hour as there were no bites even......the antrim coast is fishing poorly at the minute :?

I hear that alright- antrim coast is fishing awful. We fished waterfoot tonight on a flooding tide after dark. Not a bite between 4 rods. 3 other people were there as well and had no bites :evil: :evil: . There was a few guys on the beach- if you are on the site hw did you get on?

Glenarm can be hard going until May but at least you didn't blank mate. Suprised to hear Waterfoot being quiet, guess you were just unlucky.
