Report:

Fished a remarkably big surf on a Mayo beach the other night, 8-10 pm on a rising tide. Think the swell was too big. Tide was pretty big too. Lead was getting buried especially after about 9 pm.

Funny the things you forget and have to reacquaint yourself with when you are doing a specific type of fishing... left a mobile phone in the wrong pocket, with obvious results.

Still, nice night to be out, and I guess I can't expect bass every session!

tough luck kieran.was out me self tonite on a mayo beach and it was nil 4 me 2.me mate had 2 fish.notin major.dia agus mhuire linn.(mayo god help us)

hard luck on the blank,was in north connemara on the same night and it looked rough up along the Mayo coast,it was a bit more sheltered where we were and there were plenty of flounder and a huss around
