nice bit of fishing there mate. love the last pic there, amazing view

that blob over the headland is the rescue helecopter one of the big mothers ,unfortunatly my fishing camera is only 2 mill pix and has a crappy zoom ,that and low light didnt help

Would have thought the beaches would have thrown up a few cod yesterday havent even caught one whiting myself .That chopper is savage you can hear the thing from miles away

still good to get a few fish roger the helicopter landed in the field behind arklow south beach a year or so ago they were training and even let the lads climb inside, massive thing kids were chuffed, the rockling are in force everywhere winter doggies , shame they stink

Very nice session for two and a half hours Roger. Well done.

nice one roger, loving the cute wee sea mice pics can be a bit dodgey reversing back up outta there in the pitch black thow.

nice bit of fishing there mate. love the last pic there, amazing view

Well done Roger, you're racking up the sessions in hard weather. Tough nut

Hi there,
Was doing a bit of fishing down south over the weekend.
On low tide in the dark myself and my mate caught a few small, what looked like
codling. My fish looked slightly different however.

You might be able to help
Very like your first photo - dorsal fin all down back, light brown in colour, very small eyes more to the top of the head. caught in sandy area on lug.

Perhaps it was a codling but would like to be sure. No pic as it was returned quickly.

Any ideas

Ro

some kida rockling i,d say but without a pic i,m only guessin
