codling in sligo????

#1 Post by davyp »

hey folks,

not getting out much these days, but with the reports coming in from Cork etc of some decent catches of Codling I was wondering if anyone gets them anywhere in the sligo/mayo area? I ve neve had one , and only ever seen one caught (off of innicrone pier).

Alright Davy there were loads of tiny cod around Mullaghmore last year so I had hoped they would come back bigger this year but I haven't seen any yet. I'm heading out that way to night so I'll let ya know if any turn up.

None Davy. The tides were totally wrong the night we went out. Never seen it drop so low. We were actually walking around on sand in the harbour at Mullaghmore off the end of the jetty. I managed a flounder to save the blank. Heading out Saturday myself hope to geat a few. Tides should be good filling into darkness. I have a deep rock mark I'm going to try I'll let you know if we get any.
