day out in gurteen

doghi: me and a friend

Duration:3pm till 7

Tide: high at 4

Weather: overcast but dry

Bait: sandeel and mack

Rigs: 2 hook flapper and one hook cliped down

Results: 1 doggie 1 3 bearded rockling and a strap conger




Report: ive never fished the beach before and I only found it by chance today, needless to say I was blown away by the scenery. My goal for the day was to get a ray as ive never got one, we fished the beach for an hour or so with me pulling out a doggie, my mate brian was spinning so we decided to head to find a rock mark out past the beach on the peninsula, once we found a mark we set up once again I pulled out a rockling on a bait set out for a ray, followed by a strap conger. We both had a great day and it wont be long before were back.

Would I have more luck with a ray on the beach or out on the peninsula?

the ray are few and far between now on that beach - used to be much better

id say stick to the rocky areas - blanks very common from the sand

Brian, What did ye do to the ray since I left? Was looking forward to fishing it in August.

Any advice on a spot that might be better to try for a few ray

sorry i didn't get a chance to send you a few marks,this time of year you are better off to try deeper marks for ray,clifden bay and little killary are producing now,if you don't know how to get to the marks let me know

I know how to get to leenaun where would be my best bet to fish little killary from there?
