Had a week staying with relatives on the Antrim coast , decided on fishing Waterfoot pier as the kids wanted to fish as well.
over 4 sessions we landed :7 small codling, 11 plaice, 9 dabs, 3 dogfish and 1 flounder. All fish were caught on ragworm at varying distances.
Best fish was a Plaice of 1lb 12oz caught by my youngest daughter, roll on the next time I'm over!!!!
