b]Report[/b]:We all arrived at different times and i arrived at 6pm to find Fishface and Al (Alanjordan) set up with 2 rods out and with a fish each under their belts. Al had caught a nice flounder and Neil had a doggie. It was nice to hear there were doggies around and i was hoping to land one or two
.I set up in the middle (a ploy by Neil to catch all my fish,,,which worked by the way 
) , fishing 1 rod, and was soon reeling in stripped baits and untouched ones. Neil was fishing at distance on a pulley rig baited with mackeral and was pulling in doggies. He then caught a nice Dab. As usual ,he was giving us regular updates on the scores, and reminding me of how many i wasnt catching 
.Al was getting plenty of bites and pulling in the odd whiting, but he was intent on getting a doggie and sent out a pulley rig baited with a chunk of mack. He was rewarded with a nice little codling . Big Mick arrived and set up beside Al and was soon into a doggie. He had been quiet up to that but he let out a "whoop and yell ", that was like something from Custers last stand 
. Now they really let me have it,,,,,,,"how many have you caught Dave?", said Mick,,,followed closely by Neil telling me how many he'd caught,,,,"just so as you wont get it wrong in the report" .Big mick caught another doggie, a rockling and 2 whiting and i still hadnt a touch 
."Things can change very quickly Mick", i warned him as i caught a small whiting, blank saved . Neil was hanging on for his 10 th fish, he told me as he caught no 10 ,another doggie, 6 in all, followed by a double of whiting ,bringing his total to 12.Finally he left , and all my fish that he was catching made their way towards my hooks. Finally i got a doggie ,followed by another and a 5 bearded rockling.In all it ended up Eyesreilly 3x doggies, 1x 5 bearded rockling, and 3 x whiting.
Big Mick 2x doggies, 1x 5 bearded rockling, and 2 whiting
Fishface 6x doggies, 1x Dab, and 5 whiting
Al 1x flounder, 1x codling,rockling , cant remember how many whiting
Al left to go to Clogherhead to fish for congers till dawn so he'll update this report and confirm his catch, sorry for not getting it all right but i was being slagged and was under pressure to catch a fish(and remember who caught what!!!). Al has more pics which i'm sure he'll post if he ever gets home from his fishing expedition
.p.s. i tried frozen lug and wasnt impressed. Caught doggies on mack, Doggies were at distance but came closer as the tide turned , which is how i was able to get them . Neil had advised me to use my 15 foot rod as there are times when distance is needed and it would get me better distance than my 12 and a half foot one but i hadnt listened,,,,,i'll bring it next time
), so im glad i didnt name the beach. Just put wicklow beach,,,,next it'll be just "beach,,,,,somewhere in western Europe" 
i thought it was a deformed codling when he first broke the surface due to his big bucket bake 
now thats some session!!!
