Report:
Following the cancellation of all boat comps this weekend and the need to get afloat, launched out of Ringaskiddy once again for another impromptu session with the Donal fella. We headed back to fish the same mark of the past couple of weeks. Fish, to begin with were very slow but a move to the other side of it saw large amounts of fish taken in patches of frenetic activity mingled with nothing. Had good success targetting wrasse with small pieces of ragworm and managed a stray corkwing while Donal hogged most of the cod fishing with a late brace for myself to spare my blushes. Biggest cod was about 3 1/2, biggest wrasse about 2 1/2. Pollack were small and ranged from 20 cm pests to biggest about a pound and a half. Coalies came through in flurries but no great size to them, biggest about a pound.
Still, smallish the fish may have been but we put the East wind theory to the sword and had a pleasant afternoon with plenty of action to pass the time midst the slagging......
Nice day to be out and a grand stretch in the evening too. Cheers to Donal again for answering the call and providing the vast majority of the bait. Proper boat buddy, had the fish gutted and the boat washed down by the time we arrived back at the slip!Still mystified at the lack of small boat activity within the harbour, 1 other small boat pottering around there early on and that was it.
at the end of the was a fair result
