Co Donegal pier 16.04.10

#1 Post by last cast lad »

People: me and mick

Duration:7.00-12.00

Tide:all the way up

Weather:mild

Bait:mackeral

Rigs:pulley, clipped down

Results:me 8 dogfish, mick 11 dogfish, 2 gurnard




Report:Decided to head down to a local pier mark for an easy session :oops: felt we deserved it after all the hiking we done recently to the rock marks.
Got set up and it was pretty much fast and furious for the first 3 hours but nothing but doggies showing up, then out of all that maddness Mick landed 2 gurnards :shock: :D 8) one after another and no matter what sort of scratching rigs I lobbed out all I kept getting for the evening were dogfish :mrgreen: . But there were a few cold winters evenings of blanking consecutively for about a month that left me promising never to complain about a dogfish again so for the record I was glad to get each and every one of them :| :| they did seem to have a more rounded nose than normal and definately sharper teeth than normal, definately mini sharks :shock:
