Cork - Lure fishing - Friday 13th

Had a nice day out on Friday.

Plenty pollack on the offshore reefs.... size not huge.
Lots of codling inshore with a few bigger fish amongst.

All told it was great to get out.

Great day out. Are the Bellavista boats available to rent all year round now seeing they are in the Marina?

great wee vid, thanks for posting. and thanks for inviting us onboard
decent looking cod and im sure great fun on that light gear

great post jim looks like a super day .and the choice of music was brilliant

You've really caught the film bug bad Jim! I heard a rumour that you've ordered a clapboard and directors chair on e-bay for the next trip out on Skua

Tis all a bit of craic.... and adds a new dimension. I don't think I would be doing it every day out though!

whats the tune jim?

Thats a great post, and the laid back music was the biz, cant wait for the sequel.

Great vid Jim

great video, nice advert for a go on the selfdrive boats

Can I ask what size lead you had on the head of the worm, and would that take the worm right to the bottom ?

I would usually use anywhere between 20 and 65 grams depending on conditions.
That day I was using 45gr in most cases. I use the least weight possible that I can still keep in contact with the bottom.
In less depth of water I would be using 10-30gr. That is using very thin braid.
