Report: going to make this very quick before i forget to put report up, headed out for the day have to make the most of the way weather is going.
first stop was for macks my first drop produced a string of 6 next drop i had 3 that was it for me har managed 1 fresh bait.for some reason the fishing was quite slow just odd fish here and there big and small baits producing a bit of a mix of species.
got fed up here after a few hours headed back inshore again few fish but nothing hectic mainly pollack wrasse and codling decided after a while to try another spot for animals again towards evening and it payed off well for me it did managed a nice specimen hound tipping the scales to 6.75lb on the boat couple of pictures and quickle released hopefully to be caught some other day, great result and great day to be out

Great Hound John! Nice to meet you last night. I'd love to tag along sometime, although I max out at about 12 knots so not sure I could keep up. Glad to see you picked up a few Mackerel too.

Thanks Rob! yes good to meet you and put a face to your name will try organise something with you. we managed 10 species again yesterday which is not bad considering i had two teens on board one that never fished before, will put up short report soon

That's good fishing John and a fine fish setting the standards for everyone else

very nice specimen hound John, congrats, you're on fire at the moment, keep her lit!

Lovely smoothie well done:)

Cheers frank1 my own reports stop me from traveling , a mate of mine wanted some pointers yesterday so i launched and met up with him, he normally fishes howth side of the bay but he said never again this side puts another 15 or 20 mins on his journey but he said it was well worth it he had a fantastic days fishing with 8 species on his boat
