Was on the Co. Down coast myself on Sunday. Managed to land 4 small sea trout on the fly despite the v bright weather! Were a few bigger ones among them that i hope will be more obliging next time :D

Ran out of Baltic Specials and gadgets or i might have had a few more- by F those fish have sharp teeth that are none too kind on my flies. Might have to add a kevlar ribbing to them in the future!!
