Report:
With Derek having his in-laws over for his babies Christianing and wanting to take them out fishing the plan was hatched to get out saturday morning. would of loveld to stay out longer but had to get the boat back up the slip and head home as i had a soccer match and had to be there for two. (must give up football). Mac's were hit and miss, but ended up with about 50 almost all went back except for some for the BBQ. No size to the whiting but nice to get something different.
Enjoyable day now just to stop playing football and make time for fishing. Good to get out as hadnt been out in about 5-6 weeks.

50 Mackerel is not bad. Mate of mine wanted me to go out yesterday i looked on met eireann and there a small craft warning we should have went forgot to mention that they had a gale warning too

I think that small craft warning is on aertel since April. Anytime this week the weather looks good. i had the place to myself on saturday only a handful of yacths moving and at about 11.15 a bat past me on his way out. that was it.

depending on the direction you will find shelter around howth. its giving strong winds for the rest of the week.
