Report:
Lovely evening to be out fishing. Myself and Ally were a bit queezy from the night before but no better way to clear the head. Kept busy all night with fish every cast. Nothing big but good craic all the same. We had a fiver on biggest fish apart from dogs and ally won it with a 31cm codling. Weed was a bit of a headache gathering around the leader knots. Kev had a rod out with a tope bait on the go but no takers. Not a bad auld session with 7 species to show for it.

Hello there pat. At this time of year a rising tide in darkness is probably your best bet. We fished about a hundred yards down the beach on your left as you cross the railway tracks. Just as the shingle turns to sand. Donal fishing on the east coast is just one big party after another :wink:
