Report:
The weather had been cat , as we say in this part of the country, for most of the day but I put my trust in Met Eireann and headed for Wexford in hope of a clearance coming in for the evening. Got off to a bad start when I forgot the bait
, but thankfully I wasnt gone too far .As usual on the way down, I marvelled at the complete ignorance of the rules of the road by a significant minority of drivers 
. At least theyre consistant, 'cos it was the same on the way home at 3am . Back to the fishing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I was the first to set up on the beach, just got there ahead of a competition which saved me a walk down the beach 
. I had 2 rods , one fishing at range of about 100 yds, the other about 30/40 metres out ( I use metres on the small rod to be up to date and hip 
).
I got a doggie on the first cast, followed by a pup smoothie, both on the near rod on rag , tipped with squid. The other rod then got a thump of a bite and I was taken down the beach by a decent smoothie, which I eventually landed , happy days.
The lad nearest me kindly took a photo before I returned the fish to the water, me knees still trembling. What power these fish have,hard to hold still for a photo
. 2 lads set up on the other side of me, who turned out to be Roger and Trojan(Robbie) , from SAI. Roger recognised me when I put on my orange Imax flotation jacket , which I had unfortunately chosen to wear on this mild night,,,,,,lesson learned . The fishing was steady all night, with all of us getting decent smoothies , with a splash of pups and doggies thrown in for good measure. So much for the biggies not supposed to be around when the pups are there 
. I had a cracker of a smoothie , a real thick headed one , lively as hell, which made my night. I didnt weigh him, just glad to get a photo, and get him back, but not before getting a phonepic to send to poor Fishface on his holliers in Spain 
.
I was up and down the beach all evening , to get photos of Rogers and Robbies smoothies, and couldnt believe it when I checked my phone and it was 11pm already.Roger had a particularly good one and Robbie lost a really big one just yards out in the surf
. 
It went quiet after a while and I put out some mack which was picking up doggies,then I fished the 2 rods with large crab baits and got another decent smoothie on the mid distance rod about 50 metres out. Another doggie later and I was ready to pack up. Roger and Robbie had just left,all of us happy with a good nights fishing. Great to have these fish put a bend in the rods and nice to be able to write a report featuring a few decent fish for a change
superb nice one guys,will they ever decide to show up around here down south! 
topnotch report and snaps as usual.
& fine smoothie's well done lads
