spiddal. madigaine mara 30th april

headed out with kevin and a few other lads. weather was not kind to us. east wind plus wind against tide. not nice but anyway we headed out around to the back of inish mor. where we got into some nice pollack to about 6 pound. it was hard going with the weather but we stuck at it... not alot of species got but we got pollack coalies and i got into a fine ballon wrasse but just as i was about to get it on board it fell of.. it had some lovely red colours and the biggest head i have ever seen on a wrasse... at one stage of our drift the fish finder screen was completely green of fish below us,never seen so many fish marked..... sorry but no photos as i lefted my camera at home.....

nice going alan will have to get out soon myself

good going Alan, surely you have no problems with sealegs and you pulled a few decent fish aboard, give me a shout when you plan to go out again or Kevin has a slot available ok? Shore fishing is not really my thing, fed up with all these tiddlers
