People:myself and anto

Duration:8.00pm-11pm

Tide:full 8.30pm

Weather:lovely, no wind big whole moon no need for headlamps

Bait:fresh mackeral caught on greystones pier and rag

Rigs:one up one down, tope pulley rig

Results:50+ fish, lots good size whiting, dogs, couple of dabs

Report:lovely eveing, just a quick session but a very enjoyable one. couldn't keep the bait on the hooks with the amount of bites. tried for tope with fresh fillets of mackeral and then tried live baiting a small whiting but didn't get any runs. the brother paul had a good run last week the trace gave way right near the shore.

Was down in Kiloughter on Sat morn... wasnt great at all. 2 decent sized whiting & a handful of very small codling & dabs between 2 of us...
We were there for around 3 hrs+ from 10ish onwards. Pretty disapointing

sorry to hear that....pick an evening tide(not a big tide) and fish into darkness with worm and fish baits and i guarantee you'll catch a hell of alot more...we were catching doggies 3 at a time.

Yea I fished it this time last year one night & it was smashing... Twas a good day all the same. Was surprised there were no doggies, they seem to have been sexually attracted to my rod the past few weeks! :lol: (A little relieved at the same time - I'm Sick of them!!)
Oh yea, one other other thing, not ONCE did i pull my line back in without EVERY hook bare! Pulled in a few craps, there must have been tons of em out there... unless anyone has any other explanation? Bit of weed on the way back in - could it just have been the weed striping them on the way back?
