Clew Bay Island - Ray/Huss outing, Sat 6th Oct 07

Gang of us from Galway Bay SAC are planning an outing on Sat 6th October. We are getting dropped out by one of the charter boats to an island in the inner bay that is a noted mark for thornbacks, bull huss, conger and doggies.
There are a few places left if anyone is interested. Boat leaves at 9 and returns about 5 to pick us up. 20 quid each to include boat and barbecue - Ray does a mean sausage roll :)
If anyone is interested please pm me for details.

I'll second that 8) :D

id be intreseted miss read the txt the first time i got it :oops: if there are spaces left:shock:

ya im going i think if anyone neads a lift pm me im leving from the west side of the town salthill

whats the weather looking like? theres no chance this could not happen?
id imagine the bay being sheltered enough to get to the island

just had a look - it seems good enough - fingers crossed :D

The island isn't too far out, there are so many islands anyway that the inner bay is very sheltered, no chance of the weather scuppering plans. The skate festival is on this weekend too and the boats will be going out a good bit further for that...

do you know the name of the island i want o see it on google earth

Think its Inisgort, the one with the lighthouse. Trip still open to anyone else who wants to come along.... the boat can do 2 runs we have 11-13 already can take another 9-11 if anyone is interested

i've been dragged into attending this :? :? but it should be worth it just for the craic alone (ask anyone who has attended a GBSAC meet/comp or a galway meet) :wink: :wink:

Your killing me here lads, I'd love to but the sprog which has to be male still hasn't put in an appearance, typical irish young fella not wanting to leave its mother.....who gets crankier every day......

Pete, do what my oul fella did - go out and cut the grass, and make her walk around after you picking it up. She went into labour half an hour later. Don't think he's ever been let forget that one... :lol:

I don't fancy my chances of "making" her do anything at the moment.... I was never as glad to be "busy" at work..... :lol:

I was never as glad to be "busy" at work..... :lol:

i have seen you 'busy' at work, you must be catching loads of fish so... :lol: :lol:
