#1 Post by fishermannum1 »

People myself and a local

Duration 9 15am to 4ish

Tide dropping

Weather sunny/some wind

Bait mackerel/squid

Rigs pully's

Results 5 thorn back rays 3 dogies




Report headed off to lennan about eight to meet up with a friend of mine to fish a rock mark that we know, when we left his gaff "after the fry up" 8) we drove round to check out the pier, there were a few guys fishing it, so with the tide starting to drop we headed on to the rock mark at Dunaff. this spot is a bit if'ie, so it was a small tackle box, a few rigs and a hand full of weights in the pockets and off we went. first hour or so was dead then mickey landed a nice ray of around 5lb, then we started to get the bites. another ray of 3lb and a small dogie came to mickey, then it was my turn, had 3 ray's for three casts two around 3lb one at 4lb. after that we got a dogie each, then the wind got up a bit and the waves were getting a bit rough so we got off the rock. so after i dropped mickey home i drove back round by the pier, there were a few other guys fishing, but not a lot was being got. had a talk with three guys and told them about another few spots around there that they could try. all in all we had a good chat about the fishing. had a very enjoyable day out and looking forward to the next.. sorry no pic's the camera was in the boot!! :oops:
