Afternoon Phil,

well done at glenarm beach.

I like this mark but I have yet to take any decent fish as opposed to the breakwater where I tend to do much better.

I saw plaice up to 2.5lb taken from here last summer....

Our next club event is 02 Feb, a Waterfoot Roving event - can't wait.

I've sent you a PM - can you have a think and get back to me?

Cheers.
