Report:got down to Greystones and set up first cast 12lb cod and second cast 20 lb cod, just like the old days ) you probably guessed by now but I'm talking through my h€@e but don't blame a man for dreaming so depressed by the fishing I have to make it up (

i was down the road yesterday and caught a 3lb flounder. released it then a lovely 8lb sea trout took my fly, great scrap, tasted feckin delicious. did i mention the nice 6lb turbot from the beach?
i wish

I can highly recommend gardening as an alternative, just finished planting 8 60ft rows of spuds and 4 rows of onions at equal length. The stuff apparently goes quite well with all these delicious fish dishes. Well, that's when they finally decide to appear again, starved and ready to devour any of my baits

hello Bigsod I have many of those wet dreams but when I really go to Greystones I do catch cod they are there if you know where to fish not in the harbour and if you want to know send me a PM and I will gladly let you know

He's putting a big bait out there for you Shane

Its great to be from the real capitol. Bass bein caught from schoolies to 11lb+. Flounder to over 40cm. Thornies to over 11lbs and more coalies than you can shake a stick at. Throw in the turbot, codling and whiting and youve got plenty of species to make up a lovely fish pie to go with martins fresh veg. And all in the last few weeks too:grin::grin::grin:

You wouldn't happen to have the recipe for that pie handy Denis? My mouth is watering already, sounds really delicious And do you have a wine recommendation for my 48lb Albacore which I've stored in the freezer since my trip to Foynes last week? Not sure, Sauvignon or Riesling - decisions, decisions, story of my life!

Denis you don't live in the real capital you don't get hounds there in Cork boy

Shut up ya langer:grin:, of course i live in the real capitol. Apart from hounds, tope and stingers we get everything else. The fish love the peoples republic.:grin:

As for the Tope there were 2 pups caught in the Harbour 2 years ago during the master angler boat fish-offs

Back in me younger days Tope were caught up East Ferry
