Duration:3.5 hours
Tide:Rising
Weather :dd Good, light winds.
Bait:Rag, Lug, Fresh Herring and Mussel
Rigs: 2 hook/3 hook flappers
Results :A million and 7 Whiting, 4 Flounder, and a very confused looking baby smoothound!!
Report
Fished SB Arklow from 8pm - 11.30pm. From the off we were plagued with Whiting taking all kinds of baits.Distance didnt matter, 5 yards to 50 yards, we were picking up doubles or trebles most casts.
Biggest of them was 29cm, had a decent number in or around that size.
My mate reeled in a baby smoothound...bit of a surprise catch given that its November!!
All in all..a grand session.

[color=#40BF40][color=#4080FF][color=#0040FF]After a days sea angling nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught, turning all fishermen into liars except me.
