North Wexford 01 Aug 06

People:Me

Duration:1800 - 0100

Tide: Unsure but dropping for few hours and then rising

Weather: Fair, W wind and flat sea.

Bait:Rag, sandeel, mackerel, Frozen hermit.

Rigs:Single pulley and 2 hook flapper

Results:Dogs (what else) two at a time, one small smoothie and three tiny ray


Report:Very quiet till dark I only had one bite till then, not even one of the tiny dabs that are usually present. The dogs came on in force but no sign of the good size smoothies. Could have done with some peeler. Most fish caught on sandeel.

Should have mentioned I plugged for a couple of hours on and off with no success

How are ya Pat. What species of ray were they?

Small thornbacks. Very small dinner plate size. Still they are the first I have had this year. Any yourself anywhere on the E coast ???

Hi Pat,

not a bad wee session there mate...

You got two species that I haven't and probably wont this year.....

Jude

Havent had any off the east coast yet this year pat. Am going to make it my mission in about 2 - 3 weeks time though!

Cheers Jude, you need to venture down south.

OK Sean, I hope to try again next Tuesday, the tide should be a bit better. Now if only I can get some crab.
