People:just me

Duration:45 mins

Tide:high ish

Weather:breezy

Bait:none

Rigs:feathers

Results:2 small pollock, 1 mack


Report:I was really just going to see if anything was being caught near the blue pool at portrush. Decided to chuck a few feathers off the rocks for a minute or two and caught 2 small pollock and one nice big mackerel. Walked around on saturday and saw small pollock being caught and one good sized one inside portrush harbour.
Loads of people fishing around portrush at the minute, anyone else got any reports of what they've been catching?
