Duration:2pm - 7pm

Tide:LT 4:30 ish

Weather:calm and sunny (NO WEED)

Bait:lug, razor, mack, squid

Rigs:1 + 2 hook flappers

Results:me 5 whiting, mark 9 whiting

1st report so here goes

Decided to stay close to home after a couple of quite spells in kilcoole. started off quiet until a bird flew by and caught 1 of the lines and pulled the tri-pod over, result- Marks reel broke and my line snapped :evil: . got Mark fishing again with a cheap Lidl reel that I'd thrown in the bag. 5 minutes later a small flock of swallows flew by and nearly caused the same result managed to grab the stand this time. Anyway drama over, quiet for the next hour until darkness fell then the bites started and kept us busy for the next couple off hours.At times the bait was only in the water and the rods were busy again.we both lost a few on the reel in but still happy to see some sort of action on the rods. All fairly small biggest about 20cm all went back to swim on their merry way :D

Report:
are you sure they were swallows :shock: it's very late in the year to see one never mind a flock :?

good first report, once you are over the first hurdle it's gets much easier :wink:

East Coast Raiders had a comp on killiney last sunday and the winner had 52 whiting and 1 coalie :wink: 8)

cheers lads

John1 not well up on bird species so definitely could be wrong on that score, all i know is they nearly brought the tri-pod down again
