Cork Beach mark 29/10/07

#1 Post by rory from cork »

People: Myself and 2 brothers

Duration: 3.5 hours

Tide: falling

Weather: overcast, light sw wind

Bait: rag

Rigs: running legers

Results: 2 bass (3lb,5lb + 1 flounder)

Catch and Release:: Not this time



Report: Took two of my brothers out for a few hours on Monday morning, both haven't fished in years but we each got a fish all within 20 minutes of each other. No other bites after this but good to get out all the same.

Had some bait left over so headed to Courtmac to fish low water the following day, 1 nice 2lb flounder on crab for my brother but nothing for the rest of us... :oops:

Alright Rory, decent flounder.

The ould fella fished the estuary 3 times yesterday and this morning. One bass each session, all to crab, all around 2.5-3lbs. Boathouse and at the lifeboat slip. He reckons he lost a speciment on the lure just in the shallows and in fairness to him, hes not one to exagerate.
“........if people from Leinster support Munster, it’s actually good as it has separated those who really want to support us from the fickle ones, which means the base is being built on a solid core of support. If it’s based on fly-by supporters, that’s not a good foundation – as they say, rats will always jump first from a sinking ship.” Denis Hickie, Disco Legend

nice one Rory. Good to see those Cork beaches being good to someone else. Good to see you got them during the day. It'd be nice to be able to get out of a morning instead of continuosly charging batteries for my head torch......

Thanks lads
Blaker, sounds like your father is living the good life :D ...we were after the Giltheads but it looks like they have disappeared from the estuary now :o

Will have to persuade the Scotsman to divulge his mark :!:
