Stuarty, looks like a good days craic? :lol:

What time of the day did you fish it?

HI MATEY WE FISHED FROM 9AM TO 3PM , A FAIR DAYS FISHIN BUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS SHOULD MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE FOR THE BIGGER POLLOCK
:wink:

lets hope so anyhow! hoping to get a run out on a wee inshore boat in the area of carnlough/glenarm in the next few weeks to try for the pollack about 100 yds offshore with trolling tactics, it will give a better guide of the size of fish available all being well.

Hi BigPhil, keep us upto date with your finding please 8)

will do mate! :wink:
