then I headed to a nearby pier and when I arrived and looked at the water I didn't expect to catch much as the water was very brown from all the fresh water flowing from the mountains after all the heavy rain the last few days

I cast one rod at distance and dropped the other line down by the edge of the pier and within a minute I landed the first pollack

got the other pollack and coalfish shortly after

had only one bite at distance and landed another dogfish

Good results for short session Gerry. Although I'm starting to think that a blank is nearly better than catching a doggie these days. The bane of the Clare coast line. :evil:

Well done again
