just back from Garretstown there was a nice high tide but very calm. I started at half two and left at seven with only one touch on the bait but session was a blank :( seen one person with a good size pollock caught from a kayak fishing against the rocks

I was going to chance my arm at a bit of lure fishing there tonight but might reconsider now.
Was there any movements at all there?
