it's not nice blanking esp. in portaferry,cos at this time of year it is usually hectic-but these things happen.
someone else must have been there before me on saturday night as they had left rag worm lying-obviously they wern't catching either judging by the amount of rag left behind.
the ones we did catch were good fighting fish,but never as good as the old mackerel.
going to give it another blast this friday or saturday evening.....weather and WIFE permitting... :oops:
