Good night had by all, plenty of fish but I felt sorry for poor Roger, who barely got a minute to sit down all night. That quiver tip never stopped quivering all night :shock: . There was plenty of excitement when the 3 amigos caught the octopus,,,,,,,,,,,but How Roger managed to get that lobster up the wall without the line snapping or the hook coming out i'll never know :shock: . It was some feat :wink: . I lost a few rigs to a suspected rope underneath me,,,,,,,memories of Wicklow harbour :roll: . I'll put some piccies up of the great man himself and I need some help on identifying a suspected Poor cod :wink:

best way to remember is the poor cod has the poorer anal fin.
